Overview
- Osceola County deputies discovered two children in a home pool in Kissimmee on Friday and emergency crews airlifted them to Arnold Palmer Hospital at about 11 a.m.
- Initial statements from deputies said the children were alive when found, but later reporting says both were pronounced deceased at Arnold Palmer.
- Local reporting identified the children as about five years old and corrected earlier details about their gender.
- Detectives were on scene interviewing family members, and one report said the children were visiting from Georgia and were reportedly being watched by a 15-year-old at the time.
- The Sheriff's Office has not released a full account of how the children ended up in the pool and more information is expected as investigators and child-welfare authorities continue their inquiries.
