GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) - A 3-year-old girl has died after being pulled from a pool at a Glendale home, according to police.
The name of the victim wasn’t immediately released.
Glendale police said the girl’s family is from out of town and were renting the home as an Airbnb.
They said that at the time of the suspected drowning, there were about 12 family members including multiple children under 10-years-old in the backyard.
Family members told police they were distracted watching the other children when the 3-year-old got into the pool without anyone seeing her.
The girl’s uncle and a neighbor who is a nurse performed CPR.
Glendale paramedics said when they arrived at the scene, the child didn’t have a pulse and wasn’t breathing.
The girl was transported to a hospital in critical condition and she later died, authorities said.
Police said they don’t know how long the child was underwater and there was no fence around the pool.
Authorities said criminal charges will not be sought against the girl’s family.
