PRIDDIS, Alta. – RCMP say a two-year-old boy has died after falling into an underground sewage tank in a rural area southwest of Calgary.
Police say they were called to a home near Priddis this afternoon along with fire crews and emergency responders.
They say the boy was removed from the tank and flown by air ambulance to Calgary Children’s Hospital but did not survive.
Fatima Khawaja, a spokeswoman for STARS air ambulance, says the boy was in critical, life-threatening condition when ambulance personnel dropped him off at the hospital.
