Marion County Fire Rescue workers saved a 1½-year-old girl's life on Monday after she was pulled from a home swimming pool.
MCFR spokesman James Lucas said firefighters were assigned the call at 9:08 a.m. Monday and arrived at 9:11 a.m. The child's mother called 911 immediately after finding her child in the pool.

They assisted their county counterparts, and at 9:15 a.m. the child was transported to West Marion Community Hospital.
