It happened just before 3:30 p.m. when a child found 5-year-old Seth Fulkerson floating face down in approximately 2 feet deep water near a rope that separated sections of the pool.
The child told his parent who jumped in and pulled Fulkerson from the water.
CPR was started immediately. Fulkerson never regained consciousness and was taken to Deaconess Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
