Child Dies at Resort
Comments 0 | Recommend 0TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) - A 6-year-old boy has died after falling off a foam lily pad and striking his head in a swimming pool at a Traverse City resort.
The Grand Traverse County sheriff's department said Thursday Dylan Rosevear of Livonia was fatally injured in a fall at the Great Wolf Lodge.
Dylan was walking across a series of foam lily pads encased in plastic on Wednesday. Undersheriff Nathan Alger says the boy fell backward and hit his head on one of the pads, then fell into the water, which was three to four feet deep. He was wearing a life jacket.
His father and a lifeguard quickly pulled him out and administered CPR. The child was pronounced dead at Munson Medical Center.
An autopsy was scheduled at a hospital in Grand Rapids.
