Kevin Torgerson, Olmsted County Sheriff, center, presented a life-saving award to the Stewartville Fire Department last week, thanking the firefighters for helping save the life of Logan Olson of Stewartville, who was 18 months old when he fell into a retention pond near the 700 block of Willow Green Court Northeast in Stewartville on Wednesday, April 7. Logan was rescued by his dad, Darwin (DJ), his babysitter, and several passersby who helped administer CPR. Shortly thereafter, Stewartville's first responders arrived, taking over the rescue efforts. Logan, taken to St. Marys Hospital in critical condition, remained hospitalized nearly two weeks before returning home on April 19.
