3-year-old girl drowns at leisure center in Eure

It was around 6:30 p.m. when her family reported her missing to the site's first aid station. Rescuers, supported by the reserve gendarmes present on site, then began searching for the child. An hour later, the girl's body was found in the water, within the supervised area, according to the management of the leisure center.

Emergency services tried to revive the little girl, but were unsuccessful. She was pronounced dead around 8:30 p.m. The Louviers gendarmerie company has opened an investigation to determine the circumstances of the girl's death. "We are certain that this was an accidental death, but we are still trying to determine the exact circumstances," the prosecutor said.
