A child was taken from a home in south Minneapolis to HCMC Saturday night after what authorities said was a possible drowning in a pool.

The Hennepin County Sheriff's Office Water Patrol was called to a large residence in the 2200 block of S. Pillsbury Avenue shortly before 8 p.m. "on a report of a possible drowning in a pool," said sheriff's spokesman Andy Skoogman.

Emergency medical personnel performed lifesaving measures at the scene, Skoogman said. The child was then taken to HCMC for further treatment.

Authorities had no other information to release Saturday night.
