Rescuers pulled the boys from the icy waters but they could not be revived. A fourth child remains in critical condition.
Three young boys who fell through ice covering a lake in central England have died and a fourth remains hospitalized as weather forecasters issued severe weather warnings for large parts of the United Kingdom.
Rescuers pulled the boys, aged 8, 10 and 11, from the icy waters at Babbs Mill Park Sunday afternoon and rushed them to the hospital in the West Midlands, about 100 miles north of London. But they could not be revived after suffering cardiac arrest.
Emergency workers searched through the night and into Monday for two other children who were reportedly with the group, though it is uncertain whether there were additional victims of the tragedy.
