Nanny dies in boy's pool rescue in NY suburb

A nanny died Thursday as she tried to rescue a 3-year-old boy from a family's swimming pool, police said.

The woman, in her 60s, was watching three children by the side of the pool outside a private home when the boy took off his life vest and jumped into the water, Nassau County police said.

The nanny went into the pool to rescue the boy. The children's mother, hearing the commotion and seeing the nanny and the boy in the pool from a second-story window, ran outside and pulled the boy out. Police, volunteer firefighters and a neighbor pulled the nanny out, police said.
