Two young British brothers have been found dead in a lake in Germany, it has been reported. The boys, aged seven and nine, are believed to have been discovered in a lake near Aachen, close to the Belgian and Dutch borders, on Thursday evening.
The youngsters had been reported missing by their parents some hours earlier, reports the Mirror. Their bodies were later found in the water of the Rurberg natural outdoor pool in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Rescuers desperately tried to revive their lifeless bodies at the scene, before they were airlifted to the University Hospital in Aachen and a children's hospital in Cologne, German news site WLZ reports. They were later pronounced dead at the hospital.
