A six-year-old boy who was rushed to hospital after falling into a frozen lake near Solihull has died three days after the tragic incident.
Police confirmed the youngster "lost his fight for life" in hospital as West Midlands Police announced the news with "heartfelt sadness".
Three other boys, aged eight, 10 and 11, also died after falling into the frozen lake at Babbs Mill Park, in Kingshurst, on Sunday. The 10-year-old boy has been named locally as Jack Johnston.
