A 2-year-old girl has died after being pulled from a hot tub Friday evening.

 

Rescue crews were called to the scene near Cave Creek and Carefree roads around 7:25 p.m.

Maricopa County Sheriff's Office officials tell KGUN's sister station ABC15, the toddler was face-down in the water for several minutes before her grandmother found her. 

Authorities say her grandmother started CPR before MCSO and firefighters arrived.
