Tennessee Girl Reunites With Green County Rescuers

A Tennessee girl met the Green Country police officers who helped save her life seven years ago.

Gwenevere was 2-years-old when she fell into her family's pool in Broken Arrow and nearly drowned.

Her father, Nathan Ashton, said, "By the time I got there, Gwenevere was the color of faded blue jeans."

Ashton said help showed up just 93 seconds after he called 911.

“These are the kinds of calls we are afraid to go on, but are glad to be able to get there and help out," said Sergeant Erik VanHorn with BAPD.

Gwenevere said, "I'm glad the officers were there, that's for sure."

Gwenevere left the hospital in just three days, even though doctors had given her only a 50 percent chance of survival.

She still carries the teddy bear officers brought her in the hospital in 2008, and Tuesday, Broken Arrow police gave her a new one.
