Two-Year-Old Child Dies in Cypress Pool Drowning Accident

Tragedy struck the Cypress, Texas, Windhaven Subdivision Tuesday when a child was found unresponsive in a pool. According to the Cy-Fair Fire Department, the child was discovered in the water by an individual described as a pool maintenance worker. Upon the discovery of two-year-old victim of the Cypress pool drowning accident, the toddler was transported to Texas Children’s Hospital.

According to officials, a 911 call came in at 2:37 Tuesday afternoon. When EMS arrived at the scene, rescue personnel immediately began performing CPR on the young child. EMS continued CPR until the hospital transport arrived at the scene.

Following the 911 telephone call seeking emergency assistance, the Cy-Fair Fire Department tweeted a brief statement on the situation:

Crews from Cy-Fair Station 11 are transporting a child from the Windhaven Subdivision to Texas Children’s Hospital West who was found unresponsive by a pool maintenance worker. Our prayers are going out for the child’s recovery and for the crews on scene and at the hospital.
