Wed 7:21pm: Boy rescued from spillway in Bazetta

BAZETTA About 10 minutes ago, rescue workers pulled an 11-year-old boy out of the current of the Mosquito Creek Reservoir dam off state Route 305.

Crews were dispatched shortly after 7 p.m. on a report of a boy caught in the current of the spillway at the south tip of the reservoir.

About 7:12 p.m., he was pulled from the water and reported to be blue and unresponsive, but breathing. Two minutes later, emergency workers said he was responsive as well, according to radio traffic on the police scanner.

Additional information, including the boy’s name and how he came to be in the spillway, are not yet available. Check the Tribune Chronicle website for updates.
