Jennings County deputies and North Vernon officers responded to a home in Country Squire Lakes on Monday.
Police located a 15-day-old baby that was choking and was struggling to breathe.
“Deputies immediately began tending to the infant and were successful in clearing the restricted airway. After doing so, deputies closely monitored the infant until Rescue 20 arrived and took over treatment,” the sheriff’s department said.

The mother also expressed appreciation to dispatchers who kept her calm during the tense moments, along with the first responders for their quick response time.
