“#’Humble hero’ who jumped off bridge to save toddler identified<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

The good Samaritan who leaped from a Maryland bridge to save a drowning toddler recalled the harrowing rescue, saying he got to the 2-year-old girl just as she was sinking beneath the waters of Assawoman Bay.<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw the car seat and some other items,\u201d Jonathan Bauer said, WJLA-TV reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd about six feet away from the car seat was a little girl. She was on her back completely floating, head completely out of the water, arms moving, legs kicking, in a little pink dress.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when Bauer, who was part of a multi-car pileup on the overpass, jumped 25 feet into the water, he told the station.<\/p>\n

\u201cI pupped up, swam over to the girl, lifted her out of the water and looked at her,\u201d he said. \u201cHer mouth was open, her eyes were semi-open and then I put her against my shoulder very high and aggressively patted her on the back. And within seconds she spit up a bunch of water \u2014 a lot of water \u2014 and then started coughing and took a deep breath.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bauer handed the toddler to two boaters who saw the mishap and motored over, getting the girl to safety and to a local hospital, where she was treated.<\/p>\n

At a press conference Friday, Ocean City Mayor Richard Meehan called the good Samaritan a \u201chumble hero.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bauer\u2019s wife agreed.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t say how proud I am of him,\u201d Wendy Bauer told WJLA. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t surprise me. If you know him, that is something he would do.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
