Usher’s 5 Year Old Son Hospitalized After Almost Drowning In The Pool

  Usher’s 5-year-old son Usher Raymond V is currently in an Atlanta hospital after an accident
in the singer’s pool, E! News has confirmed.
The Voice coach’s son was taken to the hospital yesterday evening after almost drowning
while trying to retrieve a toy that was stuck in an underwater pool drain, according to an
Atlanta police report.
Usher Raymond V’s arm got stuck in the drain while he was underwater and his aunt and a
housekeeper unsuccessfully tried to free him.
Two male contracters working inside the house then rushed to the pool and were able to
free the boy and remove him from the water. One of the men performed CPR, reviving the
boy before medical responders arrived at Usher’s home.
Usher’s son is currently recovering at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite and
is “conscious, alert and breathing,” according to the report.
Usher Raymond V’s accident comes just a year after Usher’s late stepson, Kile Glover
(biological son to Usher’s ex-wife Tameka Foster), died after being struck by a personal
watercraft on Lake Lanier.
