NEWARK — It was another dangerous weekend in New Jersey's waterways.

A 5-year-old girl was saved from drowning by bystanders and police in a lake at Branch Brook Park in Newark on Sunday afternoon, Essex County Sheriff Amir Jones said. The girl wandered into the water behind a boathouse but two individuals went after her, got her out and administered CPR. City first responders joined the effort, got her breathing again and took her to University Hospital, according to Jones.

The girl wander away as her grandfather was putting a sibling in the car, according to NJ.com. Both are residents of Newark.

The Sheriff's Office and the city of Newark on Monday morning did not respond to New Jersey 101.5's request for more information.

An estimated 300 people watched from the beach in Asbury Park as a police officer and two firefighters swam to two teens in the water, according to a post on Facebook by the Asbury Park Professional Firefighters Local 384. Two of the firefighters reached one of the teens who did not appear to be in immediate danger, according to the post. They instructed him to swim toward the shore. A firefighter met the teen and assisted him to safety.

The firefighters swam another 30 yards past the jetty to the police officer who was keeping the 14-year-old above water, according to the Facebook post. They helped him get to shore, where he was taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center for additional treatment, according to the Facebook post.
