Twin 10-year-old boys who were found floating unconscious in a backyard pool in Panorama City were revived by bystanders Sunday afternoon, authorities said.

The boys were attending a party on Burton Street when they went into the gated pool unnoticed by others, said Brian Humphrey, a Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman.

Neither of the boys knew how to swim, he said. Partygoers pulled the boys out of the pool and administered mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. The boys were in fair condition at a hospital, said Humphrey.
