A car was traveling north on the Rankin Bridge at about 7:30 a.m. when it slid on a patch of ice, lost control, and slammed into another car. Witnesses say the Rankin police chief gave the 3-year-old CPR before emergency medical personnel arrived, and she was then transported to Children’s Hospital with a spinal injury, which is causing breathing difficulties. The girl’s mother was also seriously injured, and the girl’s father and the two people in the other vehicle, a woman and her adult son, suffered minor injuries.
