GOODYEAR, AZ - A boy is in critical condition after being found in a Goodyear pool Tuesday afternoon.

Russ Braden with the Goodyear Fire Department said the 2-year-old was discovered by a parent in the pool in the area of Van Buren Street and Sarival Avenue.

Other children were at the home and had reportedly just gotten home from school.

The boy's condition remained critical as of Tuesday afternoon.
