KEYSER, W.Va. -- A 6-year-old boy has been credited with saving his uncle's life.

The West Virginia kindergartener found his uncle face down on the ground between two bushes in the back yard Thursday evening. He'd had a seizure.

His father said the boy woke his uncle and wiped the dirt out of his mouth and off his face to help him breathe.

The boy sat with his uncle for several minutes to make sure he was OK, then ran to his grandmother and neighbor for help. The neighbor called 911, and the boy ran back to his uncle and sat with him until emergency officials arrived.

The uncle was kept overnight at a hospital for observation.
