An eight-month-old girl has died after she was found in a toilet Wednesday afternoon in a Phoenix home, according to the Phoenix Fire Department.
Firefighters responded to a home around 1:30 p.m.
The girl was taken to Phoenix Children's hospital in "extremely critical condition," but did not survive. She was apparently found in the toilet by a family member.
