WILKES-BARRE, Pa. — Authorities say two young boys found unresponsive in a northeastern Pennsylvania pool near their home have died.
Luzerne County District Attorney Sam Sanguedolce said the 3- and 6-year-old boys were rushed to a hospital after they were found in the Plains Township pool at about 6 p.m. Monday. Sanguedolce said the youngsters lived a few houses down and apparently walked from their home and somehow got into the pool behind a neighboring house.
The district attorney said one died Monday night and other other died Tuesday.
Autopsies are planned and police and the district attorney’s office continue to investigate, he said.
