He was reportedly given CPR and taken by ambulance to the hospital, with Usher accompanying his son.

The boy's mother and Usher's ex-wife, Tameka Foster, is currently at the hospital at her son's bedside, according to TMZ.
Foster is still recovering from the death of a son from a previous relationship last year. Usher's stepson, 11-year-old Kile Glover, died in July 2012 after being struck in the head in a jet ski accident on Georgia's Lake Lanier.
