(Winamac, IN) - Two children were rescued from the Tippecanoe River in Winamac over the weekend. One of them is in critical condition.

Shortly before 10:00 a.m. Saturday morning, a 911 call reported two children struggling in the river behind a residence near the northeast side of Winamac Town Park. According to the Department of Natural Resources, a five-year-old and a one-year-old were playing outside when they went into the river for unknown reasons.

Two adult family members pulled the children from the water after hearing the 5-year-old call for help. All four were transported to a local hospital. The one-year-old was later moved to Riley Children’s Hospital in Indianapolis in critical condition.

Police continue to investigate the incident.
