Baby found alive in river 14 hours after car crash, mum found dead in driver's seat

An 18-month-old baby girl was found alive in a car more than 14 hours after the vehicle plunged into a river in Utah, USA. The girl was discovered hanging upside down above water in her car seat by a fisherman on Saturday afternoon, police told reporters. The child's mother 25yr old Lynn Groesbeck was found dead in the driver's seat. And some people don't believe that God exists!

The little girl was rushed to a hospital in Salt Lake City, where her condition has been upgraded from critical to stable.


The car pictured above. Police say they think the car careered into the Spanish Fork River after striking a cement barrier on Friday night. A fisherman raised the alarm the next day, after he saw the girl dangling above the water as it flowed through the car.

Three police officers and four firefighters entered the river to rescue the child and took her to the hospital. Police told reporters that they will not be releasing any further details about the baby unless her condition changes. The girl's name was also not released.

    what do you mean by 'and some people dont believe that God exists'? Was God not there when the baby's mother died horribly? What type of parent will put his child in harms way for what ever reason? Thats a stupid thing to say. My on question is 'where was God when the accident was happening? was he too busy doing something else to save the baby and the mother. If you believe your God saved that baby then I accuse him of neglecting the mother and letting her die horribly. So your God is a very callous parent. Some bullshit divine plan mstchwww.

    LINDA THE RESCUERS ALL SAID THEY HEARD A VOICE SAY HELP ME FROM THE CAR, ALL FOUR OF THEM HEARD THAT VOICE AND WHEN THEY GOT TO THE CAR, THE ONLY PERSON ALIVE WAS THE 18 month CHILD WHO WAS UNCONSCIOUS. NOBODY KNOWS WHERE THE VOICE CAME FROM.

    ONE OF THE RESCUERS SAID HE LAY AWAKE FOR TWO NIGHTS WANDERING WHERE THE VOICE CAME FROM.
