HOUSTON – A six-year-old child drowned Friday in a swimming pool at an apartment complex, Houston fire rescue officials said.
Neighbors said Jasmin Brown was swimming at the Oakmoore Apartment Complex pool on Oakmoor Parkway and Airport Boulevard with her family early Friday evening. They said she went under water but didn't resurface.
Investigators said adults who were around the pool area tried to help and pulled Jasmin out of the water. Bystanders tried to deliver CPR until rescue workers arrived, however she did not survive.
Residents said the pool had just opened this week after being closed for the winter months.
