WOODS CROSS -- A 6-year-old girl is in critical condition after accidentally choking herself while playing on a swing set.
The accident happened Friday morning at a home near 950 West and 900 South in Woods Cross.
Police say it appears that a piece of the girl's clothing got wrapped around her neck and somehow became caught on the swing set.
The girl's mother found her hanging from the swing set, got her down and called 911. With the help of the dispatcher, the mother was able to administer CPR until help arrived.
The girl was flown to Primary Children's Medical Center where she remains in critical condition.
