Teen Recovering From Near-Drowning

A teenager is recovering after a near-drowning after hours at a Montgomery County pool Saturday.

The teen was swimming with friends at about 11 p.m. in a pool at the New Mark Esplanade, in the 500 block of Maryland Avenue. The pool was closed at the time.

A Rockville police officer pulled the victim out of the pool. Rescuers took him to a local hospital, where he was treated.

The other teens apparently left the scene, police said.
