8-Year-Old NJ Girl Critical After Falling Into Retention Pond
An 8-year-old girl was in critical condition after falling into a retention pond near her home Thursday afternoon in Burlington County, authorities said. Crews resuscitated the girl after finding her in a body near the 100 block of Colemantown Drive in Chesterfield around 4 p.m., Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office spokesman Joel Bewley told Daily Voice. She was flown to St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children in Philadelphia and remains critical, he said. The girl had reportedly left her nearby home a short while earlier, said Bewley, calling the incident "accidental and tragic."
