LAS VEGAS – In a heartbreaking incident, 4-year-old Cooper Austin, who was found unresponsive in a family pool on May 31, has passed away, as confirmed by the Clark County Department of Family Services (CCDFS). The young child tragically succumbed to the incident on June 4 at a local hospital.
According to CCDFS, the child’s adult caregiver immediately called 911 upon discovering Cooper in the pool.
