Usher's 5 year old son hospitalized after nearly drowning in the pool

Usher and Tameka Raymond's 5-year-old son, Usher Raymond V, was rushed to the hospital after almost drowning in the family pool...

From TMZ
Usher's son Usher Raymond V is in the ICU at an Atlanta hospital after a serious accident in the singer's pool Monday, TMZ has learned. Sources say the accident occurred around 6 PM yesterday. Usher was not home at the time.
Here's what we know ... The child was playing in the pool with his aunt and saw a toy in the drain. He dove down to get the toy and his arm got stuck in the drain. The aunt immediately dove in to rescue him but couldn't get his hand out. The maid then dove in and tried but was also unsuccessful.
The maid screamed for help. Two men working in the house came out, dove in and freed the boy. He was given CPR immediately and rushed to the hospital. Usher arrived and drove in the ambulance with his son.
5-year-old Usher Raymond V is the oldest of Usher's two sons with ex-wife Tameka Raymond. We're told Usher and Tameka are currently at the hospital.
Doctors have been running a series of tests and doctors say he'll be ok.
This is the second accident to strike a child in Usher's family. Tameka's 11-year-old son Kile from a previous relationship passed away last year from injuries sustained during a jet ski accident.

    Good thing he's alive.
    I hope Usher doesn't lose custody of his son...we know how those fellas get.
    They could accuse him of negligence and stuff.

    I thought blacks know better, we don't dive to save toys, dogs and all sorts, if it ain't our family member, nickur pls.. That's the whites, they risk their lives for stuffs lik dat, we blacks, we Run. I'm sure you'll know better when you return home. God be with you..

      My thoughts exactly ...i was still trying to get used to the first dove in when the others came flooding. Let God pity that woman and save her son, i guess her kids should stay off water becus the other one that died was cus of a water related accident. Smh

    the water spirit is stealing Tamekas kids. She needs to break this demonic cycle, cos these are just babies. This curse needs to be broken through fasting and prayer. I will pray for her too. This is not normal by long shot

    From now on no more pool or lakes.

    Usher give these kids back to Tameka,. you dont even have time to keep an eye on them.

    There is no better care and love than a mothers care and love.
