A young child had to be revived by a lifeguard after being pulled from the Hays Aquatic Park on Wednesday afternoon.

Emergency personnel were called to the Hays Aquatic Park, 300 Main St. Hays, around 4 p.m. Wednesday for the report of an unresponsive individual — a possible drowning.

According to Hays Assistant Police Chief Brian Dawson, a lifeguard entered the water, pulled a child out of the pool and revived the child using CPR.

Dawson said a parent transported the child to Hays Medical Center.

No other details on the incident were made available Wednesday evening.
