CHESTER, S.C. (AP) - Authorities say a 2-year-old South Carolina girl has drowned after falling into a watering trough being used as a kiddie pool.
The Herald of Rock Hill reported that Sara Grace Hunter was pronounced dead Saturday afternoon at Chester Regional Medical Center.
Chester County Coroner Terry Tinker says the death was an accident.
Tinker says the toddler was playing outside her home in Chester with her 5-year-old sister and two young friends late Saturday morning.
The coroner says the girl fell into an 8-foot-round water trough that was used for both watering animals and as a makeshift kiddie pool. He says the water was just over a foot deep.
The girl's mother found her.
