Toddler drowns in canal after wandering from home | wtsp.com

LAUDERDALE LAKES, Fla. (AP) - The Broward County Sheriff's Office says a 2-year-old girl is dead after drowning in a canal.

Deputies say Jona Lilavois wandered from her family's Lauderdale Lakes home Friday afternoon. Her parents had briefly left her alone watching television inside the house while her mother went to get lemons from a backyard tree and her father went to the restroom.

Authorities say the child was gone when they returned. The father called 911 and deputies began searching for the girl.

A bloodhound picked up the child's scent and led deputies to a nearby canal. The dog then jumped into the water. Divers pulled the unresponsive toddler from the water.

The young girl was taken to Broward General Medical Center where she died.

Investigators say the home's front door was not secured.
