A 2-year-old North Hollywood boy drowned in a neighbor’s swimming pool Wednesday after apparently wandering away from two teenagers who were taking care of him, authorities said.

Paramedics and hospital staff members spent several hours trying to revive Hunter Alexander Wagner after police pulled the unconscious boy from a “frigid and murky” swimming pool about 3:20 p.m. in the 7800 block of Goll Avenue, said Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman Brian Humphrey.

Los Angeles police Officer Jason Lee said detectives were probing the death.
