Baby who survived car crash in Utah river is getting better
CNN ^ | 3/9/15 | Ben Brunfield

A mystery arose from the rescue: The police officers who entered the water say they heard a voice calling for help.

The mother was dead, but the officers said that they heard an adult's voice calling to them.

"The four of us heard a distinct voice coming from the car," Warner told CNN. "To me, it didn't sound like a child's voice."

The voice gave the rescuers a surge of adrenaline needed to push the vehicle upright, he said.

The mother was dead. The child was unconscious, but her eyelids were fluttering, and the rescuers knew she was alive, Warner said.

It's one of those things that doesn't have an explanation, he said about the voice.

"It felt like I could hear someone telling me, 'I need help,'" DeWitt told CNN affiliate KSL. "It was very surreal, something that I felt like I could hear."

Tyler Beddoes, a third officer at the scene, said the same.

"Someone said 'help me' inside that car," he said.

Now if only God sent an Angel to the little baby left alone in the Pittsburgh apartment with his dead mother.

Mother died, wasn’t talking. That was God’s work, hands down. Tragic the mother had to die, but God has plans for the little one, as he had plans for us all.
