Police officer saves boy in Egypt

A Jersey policeman has been praised for helping to save a young boy's life while he was on holiday in Egypt.

Det Con Jerry Bolton helped a young French boy who had stopped breathing after falling into a swimming pool.

The officer saw six-year-old Dimitri Perney fall into the hotel pool. He was under the water for about a minute before being rescued.

Mr Bolton worked with another man to resuscitate the boy, who was taken to hospital and made a full recovery.

Dimitri's parents have paid tribute to the officer, saying they will always remember what he did.

People, please watch your smaller children around pools or at the beach. Too many accidents like this occur yearly. I know parents deserve a break too while on holiday ........ but not on the costs of children lives.

I've seen on vacation people talking away, drinking alcohol and not watching their toddlers or young children. Sometimes these kids were too far away to be properly watched. Something horrible can happen so easily ..... please watch out!
