<\/div>

Officers immediately started CPR and the child was transported to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead.<\/p>

According to detectives, a large group of people, including the child\u2019s family, was present at the party. The 4-year-old girl was swimming in the pool when she slipped under the water.<\/p>

Investigators say she was at the bottom of the pool for several minutes before she was discovered.<\/p>

The child\u2019s mother, Rosette Pierrecius, was at the party and was arrested Sunday morning on a charge of child neglect causing great bodily harm.<\/p>

The Need for Water Safety<\/h2>

Bradenton Police Department wants to remind the community about swimming safety. Drowning is the leading cause of death in America among children ages one to four, and drownings can happen even with many adults present. BPD reminds those planning on being near water to have a designated “water watcher” to help keep children safe.<\/p>

This is still an ongoing investigation. Updates will be released as they become available.<\/p> <\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
