An autistic man who cannot speak used his iPhone to help save a little boy’s life. The 18-month-old boy had fallen into a swimming pool on May 8.

Aaron Cahal, 23, who was diagnosed as autistic when he was 2 years old, helped alert Ohio’s South Point Police about the incident, reported WSAZ-TV.

“He sent me a text that said he heard a scary cry,” Aaron’s father, Steve Cahal, told the station.
