Three children have been found dead after getting trapped in an unplugged freezer while playing outside in Florida, United States.

According to the Suwannee County Sheriff’s Office, the youngsters could not be revived by the time they were found in the garden of a home in Live Oak on Monday.

Two of the children – a six-year-old boy and a one-year-old girl – were siblings and lived with their grandmother, and the third was a four-year-old girl who lived with her mother.

The two women are roommates at the property.

One of them was asleep at the time the children got trapped as she was preparing for a night shift, and the other was in the bathroom. She could not find them upon returning, prompting the pair to carry out a search.

The children were finally found in the chest freezer which had been recently bought but not yet plugged in.

Police, fire and rescue crews were called to the scene as the women tried to perform CPR on the children, but efforts to resuscitate them failed.

The children were pronounced dead at the hospital.

Investigations are ongoing into the deaths, with post-mortems still to be carried out.

At a press briefing, Suwannee County Sheriff, Sam John, said: “Words can’t describe how heartbroken I am. Any time you deal with children and something like this and when they die from something like this nature, it just tugs at your heartstrings. Words can’t describe this and the only thing we can do is go forward.”
