NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say they’re investigating after a 2-year-old boy drowned in a pool at a Florida home.

The Tampa Bay Times reports that the Devin Vatter was pronounced dead Monday evening shortly after arriving at a Pasco County hospital.

Deputies say the boy’s grandfather had been watching him at a New Port Richey home. Devin apparently got out of the house when the grandfather went to use the restroom.
