Boy, 7, Dies After Being Found in Pond at Cambridgeshire Golf Centre

Police are treating the case as non-suspicious, with a coroner to determine the cause.

Overview

  • Emergency crews were called to Priory Golf Centre in Wimblington just after 2pm Monday following reports of a child in the water.
  • Ambulance teams, a rapid response unit, an ambulance officer vehicle and the Magpas Air Ambulance attended the scene.
  • The child was taken by road to Peterborough City Hospital for treatment and was later confirmed to have died.
  • Cambridgeshire Police said no arrests have been made and the case has been passed to the coroner after what they described as a non-suspicious incident.
  • The incident involved a small pond at the activity centre, and the coroner will now establish the medical cause and circumstances, a process that can take time before any public findings.
