A 2-year-old girl found at the bottom of an east Fayette pool Thursday afternoon died from her injuries, police said.

The girl was initially reported missing in a 911 call, and Fayette County sheriff’s deputies arrived at the home at 240 Felton Drive to begin a search. The girl was found in just a few minutes and was removed from the pool.

Deputies then began CPR on the victim while waiting for the first medical crew to arrive.

After county medical crews treated the victim, she was transported to Piedmont Fayette Hospital.

Fayetteville police and sheriff’s deputies blocked intersections on Ga. Highway 54 to help the ambulance get to the hospital quickly.
