“He was wearing an underwater-type mask when he went under,” the caller told a 9-1-1 operator with Montgomery County Regional Dispatch.
One of the other children at the address noticed the boy had not resurfaced, the caller said.
“We have a child who has drowned in the pool,” said the caller, who identified as a guest at a get-together on Brahms Drive. The victim was under water “for at least a couple of minutes,” the caller said.
The caller said people there were attempting to do CPR on the victim. The operator, who was put on speaker phone at one point, tried to coach the person performing chest compressions on Wilson-Aldrege.
