The boy started making noises when the crew desperately tried to save his life. “He was pale. We suspected hypothermia as he was cold and his hands and feet were all white. he was also frothing at the mouth,” says Evran. “We covered the baby with a blanket, tried to rescue him. After our call, a tow boat from the harbor arrived to help us before taking the baby to Kusadasi.”
