7-year-old saves toddler’s life in “miracle” rescue

A 7-year-old boy lives up to his name by saving a toddler from drowning in a California pool.

Massiah Browne was reportedly swimming in the pool of a Sacramento apartment complex on July 19 when he realized a 3-year-old boy needed help.

“I was just playing in the pool, and then I saw a boy at the bottom of the pool,” the second-grader told Good Morning America. “And I wanted to get him.”

Massiah ventured through six feet of water to grab the boy, his mother Tiara Delvalle said. He said the younger boy still had his mouth and nose open when he dove down to pull him to the surface.

“He was just upside down, face down, floating on top of the pool,” said a woman who witnessed the incident.

Massah’s 9-year-old relative, Savannah, who was in the pool with him, then pulled the toddler onto the pool deck, where the boy’s mother performed CPR and an adult called 911.

Sacramento Fire Department officials said the 3-year-old was breathing when first responders arrived at the scene. He was taken to a nearby hospital and has recovered.

“It’s a miracle,” Delvalle said.

Delvalle has shared multiple images of Massiah and his younger brother on social media. The Browne Brothers even have their own Instagram page where Massiah can be seen swimming, diving, rapping at a studio and traveling around the world. He also has his own Instagram page.

“I’m young. I’m good looking. I can do everything and more,” said Massiah, who also goes by the superhero nickname “Siah Fire.”

Massiah may have gotten his courage from his father, Marcus Browne, a boxer who represented the USA at the London 2012 Olympics.

“He’s super insightful, so there’s really nothing out of the ordinary for him to do something like that, I mean really,” said Marcus Browne. “It’s just crazy that he’s 7 years old and doing things like that.”

Both of Massiah’s parents are proud of his life-saving actions.

“Massiah, you are the coolest kid in the world! You are everyone’s favorite superhero and words cannot express how grateful and blessed I am to call you my son,” Delvalle wrote on her Instagram page.
