A toddler has died after being pulled from a backyard pool near 64th Street and Cactus Road on Tuesday morning.

Phoenix Fire Department officials say a 2-year-old boy was found in the pool unconscious and not breathing, and CPR was started before first responders arrived. He was later pronounced dead after the incident, fire officials said.

It's not known how long the child was in the water.
