That article says she's found? No idea if she's okay, but they say located.

It didn’t when I first started the trying to type it up and I didn’t double check the link when I posted. It‘s good that she was found. So many aren’t.

I hope she's alright. It doesn't say her condition, and I'm guessing from the location she was found near water.

The body of a five-year-old girl was found early Thursday morning in Roger Williams Park in Providence.

Shortly before 5 AM, the deceased body was located in the water at the park.

Police say they believe it was an accidental drowning at this time but they are not ruling out anything suspicious.

State Police were also called in for the search.

Little kids and water, especially autistic little kids and water, often spells disaster. Poor little thing.

Sleep well, Naomi. I'm sorry your time here on earth with us was so short.

Oh this hurts my heart so much. I have an autistic 6 year old brother, and luckily he is in the category of autistic kids who are terrified of being without someone they trust, so he has never ventured outside alone. It’s so sad because Naomi didn’t know she would get hurt. She just wanted to explore. Ugh! Rest easy Naomi, I hope you can now explore safely where you are. <3
