WINSLOW TWP. -- The toddler who was hospitalized after being found in a pool in Sicklerville Aug. 27 died a week later at the hospital.
Winslow Police Lt. Christopher Dubler confirmed the 2-year-old girl died over the weekend.
He said the drowning was a "tragic accident" and police and investigators from the Camden County prosecutor's office have determined it was not suspicious.
The girl was found in an above-ground pool in the 100 block of Prospect Road around 7 p.m. Aug. 27. Family members were performing CPR when emergency responders arrived, 6abc reported.
She was rushed to Kennedy University Hospital in Washington Township and later transferred to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. She was in critical condition but died over Labor Day weekend, Dubler said.
