4-Year-Old Boy Dies of ‘Dry Drowning’ Almost a Week After Swimming Trip

A four-year-old boy from Houston, Texas has died of “dry drowning” almost a week after he last went swimming.

Francisco Delgado Jr. told ABC 13 his family went swimming at the Texas City Dike with his son Frankie, 4, on Memorial Day weekend.

About a week later, Frankie complained of shoulder pain and woke up a few hours later.

“Out of nowhere, he just woke up. He said, ‘Ahhh,” Delgado told the news outlet. “He took his last breath and I didn’t know what to do no more.”
