 A British  FOUR-year-old boy has drowned in a tragic pool accident while on holiday with his family in Kos.

The lad is thought to have woken earlier than his parents before wandering from their hotel room. By the time he was found, efforts were made to save him, but they were unsuccessful. The boy died before emergency services could arrive.

A guest at the hotel,said that the boy was found in the pool by a man who pulled the lad out while shouting for others to come and help.

The little boy is understood to have died before emergency services arrived at the scene.

His parents were arrested - along with a hotel manager - on suspicion of manslaughter and endangering the life of a minor.

They were later released and were due to answer to the charges against them in court on the island.
