4 - Years boy, drowns in Liberty County pond

 A heartbreaking situation unfolded Monday in Liberty County which took the life of a 4-year-old child.

The sheriff’s office said deputies received a call from a grandmother around 12:30 p.m. to report that her grandson was missing from a residence in the 4500 block of Private Road 4501.

The grandmother, who is wheel chair bound, said the boy had been missing for 15 minutes before she called 911. A short time later, the boy's body was found in a nearby pond. 

Deputies responded to the pond, located near Indigo Road and PR 4501. Authorities recovered the child and performed CPR, but it was too late. Officials said it is possible believe the child had been in the water 30 to 40 minutes before he was found.

The Liberty County Sheriff's Office is investigating.
