Fort Worth police officers saved a pinned baby from a overturned car in a video posted to social media by the department.
According to the post, officers responded to a crash Thursday morning on Interstate 30, between Eastchase Parkway and Cooks Lane. The post said the crash ejected the female driver and an infant, who was left pinned underneath the overturned car.
When officers arrived on scene, the infant was unresponsive, the post said. In the video, the officers are seen lifting the car with the help of civilians to pull the baby out.
An officer then performs CPR on the baby, eventually waking her. Paramedics then arrive on scene.
The post said both the baby and the woman are in stable condition and expected to make a full recovery.
