Two Houston-Area Drownings Reported in One Weekend

Reports say a six-year-old died in southeast Houston Saturday, and then on Sunday a three-year-old boy drowned in Oak Ridge North in Montgomery County. Also on the same weekend, a 13-year-old was pulled from a southwest Houston pool and was fighting for her life in the hospital.

The six-year-old was at his grandmother’s home when he was found unresponsive in the water, reports say. He was taken to the hospital, but died shortly afterward. The three-year-old crawled out of a doggie door and into the back yard and slipped into the pool.
