Police in the town of Tonawanda, just north of Buffalo, tell local media outlets that the boy got out of the house around 1 p.m. Thursday and ended up in a nearby pool.
Officials say he was given emergency CPR after being found at the pool, but he was pronounced dead at Kenmore Mercy Hospital.
Police haven't leased the child's name.
