A Dallas police officer helped revive a 2-year-old girl Tuesday after she fell into an empty pool where rainwater had collected, police say.

The girl's mother said the child had been playing in the backyard, near the pool, with her siblings Tuesday afternoon when she fell in.

Police arrived at the east Oak Cliff home in the 1800 block of Harlandale Avenue about 6:10 p.m. and found the mom holding the unresponsive girl.

An officer started back compressions on the girl until she began breathing again, police said. She spit out about 6 ounces of water before she started breathing and crying, they said.

Dallas Fire-Rescue took the girl to Children's Medical Center Dallas, where she was reported to be in good condition.
