Toddler is found dead on popular Greek tourist beach: Police working to identify little girl

A toddler has been found dead on a beach in Greece as police work to identify the little girl as young as two years old. She was found by a horrified passerby on the popular tourist spot Eden Beach in Paleo Faliro, near Athens. The child is believed to be two or three years old and was discovered today in the early hours of the morning. A man from Egypt saw the little girl's body on the shore and called the emergency services, local reports say. The toddler's body was rushed to the Agia Sofia Children's Hospital via ambulance, where doctors pronounced her dead. She is said to have been wearing a full-zip swimming costume and did not have any arm bands on, according to Greek newspaper Protothema. They added she did not have any obvious signs of abuse. An autopsy will be carried out to determine the cause of death. No child matching her description had been reported missing in the area. Investigations are ongoing to determine the girl's identity and how she died. It comes after a British four-year-old boy died in May after being pulled from a hotel swimming pool in Tenerife. The heart-breaking incident took place in San Miguel de Abona, a popular holiday spot in the south of the island. Emergency services rushed to José Miguel Galván Bello Avenue shortly before 5pm local time following reports of a child in cardiac arrest. According to Spanish broadcaster Telecinco, the child was rescued from the water by a lifeguard but was found to be unresponsive. Two advanced life support ambulances and a medical helicopter were sent to the scene. However, despite the best efforts of paramedics, who carried out advanced resuscitation procedures, the child could not be saved.
