LAS VEGAS — A 4-year-old Magna boy drowned in a swimming pool while on vacation in Nevada over the weekend.
The child was swimming Friday evening with other children and adults during a gathering at a home in the northwest part of the city, according to a report from KLAS-TV in Las Vegas.
Porter Laurence Liddell was pronounced dead around 5:30 p.m., according to the Clark County Coroner's Office.
The drowning has been ruled an accident.
