Earlier this week, the fire department shared the story of a Glendale woman who saved a young girl last year, after the girl nearly drowned.

Glendale Fire credited the woman’s “quick-thinking, courage and willingness to help” with saving the young girl’s life.
“Stories like this remind us that anyone can make a difference when every second counts,” the fire department wrote.
