The man who rescued a toddler from drowning in a Maryland bay spoke to the public for the first time Friday.
On Sunday, emergency crews responded to a five-vehicle crash on the Route 90 bridge over Assawoman Bay in Ocean City. Authorities said the crash caused a two-year-old girl in a car seat to eject from a pickup truck into the water below.
Shortly after, a man quickly jumped into the bay to save the girl. Police said more Good Samaritans then arrived to pull them out of the water.
The girl is expected to make a full recovery. Officials say she was released from a local hospital Monday night.
On Friday, Ocean City officials identified the man who rescued the girl as Jonathan Bauer during a press conference at an Ocean City fire department station. » Subscribe to WUSA9: bit.ly/2lO8e2F
