The Erie media outlets are reporting that the 5 year old kid that fell into the pool at the Glenwood YMCA on Saturday, has been released from the hospital. The child was wearing some some sort of body brace or body cast so she sunk like a stone when she went into the water. I’m wondering why the kid was allowed near the water in the first place.
