Children Treated In Hospital Following Boating Accident
Two children are continuing to receive hospital treatment after being rescued from the River Avon following a boating accident in which their father and brother died.
The family's rowing boat capsized in strong waters at a weir in Barford on Saturday afternoon.
A local resident was able to pull the boy and girl from the water. The girl had suffered a cardiac arrest and CPR was performed on her at the scene of the accident after she was rescued.
She was said to be in a serious-but-stable condition after having been transferred from Warwick Hospital to Birmingham Children's Hospital.
The bodies of the man, named locally as Julian Mynott, and boy were recovered several hours later.
Police said the names of the victims would not be officially released until formal identification had been carried out.
The children are all thought to be under the age of 10.
