JACKSON (AP) — A 2-year-old girl who was found unresponsive in a Mississippi pool has died.

The child died Wednesday after being pulled from a pool Tuesday evening.

Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey says deputies along with the Florence Fire Department responded to the scene at about 7 p.m.

The mother pulled the girl from the pool before a deputy arrived and performed CPR. The child was taken to Blair E. Batson Hospital in Jackson, where she later died.
