UPDATE: Toddlers in Hospital Following Pool Incident

Two three-year-old twins who fell into a pool late this morning on Tappan Avenue in Babylon were rescued by their mother and appear to be in satisfactory condition at Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center in West Islip, according to police.

Initial reports earlier in the day Thursday stating that one of the toddlers was reportedly discovered at the bottom of the pool proved to be erroneous.

"They are still at the hospital under observation," a police source told Patch.

According to Babylon Town zoning code, in-ground pools must be completely surrounded by a fence of at least four feet high and have a self-latch lock and self-closing gates.

No details regarding how the children entered the pool area were provided by the police.
