A 13-year-old Nigerian boy died while trying
to save a drowning teenage girl in a small lake in Dublin, Ireland.
The unfortunate incident occurred on Friday in
the Waterville Hall residential complex in Blanchardstown, Dublin according to
the Irish Mirror. The
boy - Ricky Osagie, and another teenage girl had
attempted to rescue the girl who was drowning.
According to reports, Ricky may have known he
might have been risking his life when he dived into the lake, as he
couldn’t swim.
Witnesses reportedly stated that he had been
under water “for at least 10 minutes” before he was found.
The heroic teenager remained in intensive
care for hours before he eventually passed away with his parents by his
side. The girl he saved, as well as the other girl who was also part of the
rescue attempt, are said to be in stable condition.
