The Fort Worth Water Gardens were the scene of a tragic accident which resulted in the loss of four
lives. On the 17th June 2004 three members of the same family and a friend were found at the bottom of a deep pool
at the gardens. It appears that the youngest child either jumped or slipped into the water. The other girl fell in
when she tried to reach in and help her friend. The man and the teenage boy then jumped in to try and save the
girls. A pump at the bottom of the pool that supplies water to a waterfall apparently created a suction that made
rescues difficult.
