Three police officers, two fire fighters, a fisherman, and a mysterious voice are being credited with saving the life of an 18-month-old baby. She was found unconscious, dangling from her car seat after a crash in the Spanish Fork river in Utah.
A fisherman called 911 Saturday after he discovered what he believed to be an abandon car in the river flipped on its top.
"Some officers on scene as well as a couple of firemen advised that they had heard someone saying 'help me.' So they jumped into the river and they were able to overturn the car onto its side," Lt. Matt Johnson, with the Spanish Fork Police Department, told CBN News.
That's when they found the baby, Lily Groesbeck, unconscious but alive. Her mother, 25-year-old Lynn Groesbeck died in the accident.
Johnson believes what the child was wearing and how the car was positioned contributed to her survival.
"The low was 28 degrees for Friday evening. Fortunately the child was dressed in some fleece material and the vehicle was positioned in such a way that the water wasn't able to reach the child," Johnson said.
The baby was taken to Salt Lake City Hospital and is expected to be okay.
"She is doing great, she was upgraded yesterday to stable condition and word from her family is that she was singing and moving around and has recuperated from Friday night," Johnson said.
The Spanish Fork police officials who made the discovery are no longer talking to the media. Johnson said some of them were "emotionally distraught" over the situation.
"A couple of them spoke about hearing someone call for help. It was obvious that the mother was deceased so it wasn't her. There were a couple (of) people standing on the bridge, so they don't know if it was divine intervention. So they're kind of struggling with this whole situation," Johnson said.
Some of the police officials who responded to the scene were taken to the hospital and treated for hyperthermia, Saturday.
"In my opinion its a very miraculous event, its not very common for a child to be in a vehicle for 14 hours hanging upside down in a car seat with the weather conditions as such found alive and in such a good condition," Johnson told CBN News.
Police officials believe the accident happened around 10:30 p.m. Friday, after the driver was visiting family. They are working to figure out what caused the crash.
