BREAKING 5-year-old boy dies after being trapped in deep well for 4 days, Morocco's king says
IGHRAN, Morocco -- The Moroccan royal palace said Saturday that a 5-year-old boy who was trapped in a deep well for four days has died.
An Associated Press reporter at the scene saw the boy wrapped in a yellow blanket after he emerged from a tunnel dug specifically for the rescue. Rescuers used a rope to send oxygen and water down to the boy as well as a camera to monitor him. By Saturday morning, the head of the rescue committee, Abdelhadi Temrani, said:"It is not possible to determine the child's condition at all at this time. But we hope to God that the child is alive."
Temrani, speaking to local television 2M, said Saturday that rescuers had just two meters left to dig to reach the hole where the boy is trapped.
