Orlando Police Charge Doctor After Seven-Year-Old Boy Drowns in Community Pool

Orlando police arrested and charged a doctor after a seven-year-old child in her care drowned at a community pool.

Investigators allege the caregiver watched the child actively drowning for at least five minutes before seeking help.

Authorities claim she sent other children into the water in an attempt to rescue the boy.

The seven-year-old boy died following the incident at the facility.

For families monitoring child supervision and pool safety, Florida law enforcement has filed formal criminal charges in the fatal case.
