Boy nearly drowns in Council Bluffs hotel pool

March 30, 2011 By Radio Iowa Contributor

A ten-year old boy nearly drowned in a Council Bluffs hotel pool last night. Rick Benson, EMS/Division Chief Operations officer for the Council Bluffs Fire Department, says the boy, who is from New Mexico, had been in the water anywhere from 20 seconds to as long as one minute.

The youth was taken to the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha after he was found in a pool at the Quality Inn & Suites, at 35th Street and West Broadway, at around 6:40 p.m. No other details have been released.
