Key Biscayne Fire Rescue worked Monday to remove a child from a pool after her arm got caught in a pool drain.
The child's head was above the water, but her arm was stuck in the drain. Miami Fire Rescue chiseled out the pool with hydraulic tools to free the girl's arm.
The pool is located at Key Colony Condominium. Crews could be seen from the air attempting to free the girl.
This is a perfect reminder that all pool drains must be replaced in accordance with the new codes. The new covers prevent hair and extremities from getting caught in the drain. They save lives!!! Have your pool evaluated today.
