Usher's 5 Year Old Son Hospitalized After Near-Drowning Incident

Usher Raymond V, the singer's eldest son with his ex-wife Tameka Foster was rushed to the hospital on Monday after his arm got caught in the drain of a pool at the singer's Atlanta home around 6pm. 

According to TMZ, the youngster was said to be playing in the water with Usher's aunt Rena Oden, after spying a toy in the drain of the pool, he reportedly dove down to retrieve it but his arm got caught in the process.

Seeing Usher Raymond V underwater, Rena immediately swam down to rescue the boy but to no avail then a maid also rushed to the scene and further could not help, she screamed for help.


It was then that two men working in the house were said to have rushed out and also dove into the pool, finally freeing the boy's arm from the drain. Usher Raymond V was then reportedly given CPR and rushed to hospital.

Reports have it that the doctors are doing series of test and the youngstar will be okay. Only last July, the family suffered a tragedy when Tameka Foster's 11-year-old son and Usher stepson, Kile Glover died after being struck by a jet ski while on an inner tube in Georgia's Lake Lanier.
