A fourth boy, aged six, remains in a critical condition after being pulled from the water by emergency crews, including a police officer who tried to punch through ice during the rescue efforts.
Nobody else has been reported missing after the deaths of three boys aged eight, 10 and 11 who fell through ice into a lake in the West Midlands.
Emergency services were first called to the scene at 2.36pm on Sunday, where it was reported four children had been playing on the ice and fallen through into the lake. In an update on Monday morning, West Midlands Police said: “Three boys have tragically died after falling into the lake at Babbs Mill Park in Solihull yesterday afternoon.“Sadly, they could not be revived and our thoughts are with their family and friends at this deeply devastating time. We’ll have specialist officers offering them as much support as we can.
“But as you can imagine the families are absolutely devastated, which is why we’re doing our very best to support the families. Appearing beside Supt Harris, Mr Stanton said: “Yesterday’s incident is a stark reminder to us all of the dangers of open water, especially during the winter months.
