A Michigan mother was arrested Saturday after police broke down the door to her home and found her allegedly drowning her 2-year-old daughter in a bathtub, authorities said.

The dramatic rescue occurred inside the woman’s home in Albion, the Department of Public Safety said in a statement. Albion is almost 100 miles west of Detroit.

The girl, who also had stab wounds to her chest and throat, coughed up water and began to breathe after officers gave her CPR, the statement said.
