The 17-year-old senior was riding on a float in the homecoming parade when she saw a desperate mother and a little boy who needed help."I see the kid. I see a little bright red face and his mom's holding him up, begging for help, screaming, asking 'someone help me someone help me,' Winters told CNN affiliate KTVT.She told the station that her first thought was"Oh my God, I've got to help this child.
The incident happened on September 18, but 2-year-old Clarke and his mom, Nicole Hornback, came to Winters' school on Tuesday to thank her.Hornback told KTVT she was sitting right next to Clarke when it happened."I just happened to look over to him and there was no noise, there was no coughing, there was no breathing," she said."And at that moment that's when I tried to give him the Heimlich, and I've never taken a class.
