MILTON – A two-year-old girl is now in stable condition after falling into her family pool in the town of Milton.

Police say it happened around 2:30 p.m., Tuesday, at a home on Cabot Trail, near Steeles Avenue and James Snow Parkway.

The toddler was pulled from the pool by a family member who performed CPR on the girl.

Upon arrival, two police officers continued CPR until paramedics arrived.

The girl was then airlifted to a Toronto hospital in serious condition.

Police want to take this opportunity to reiterate the importance of adult supervision of children around swimming pools.
