CANTON,Winning Exchange Miss. (AP) — A 4-year-old boy drowned in a pond in central Mississippi after wandering away from his family’s apartment while his father took a shower, a police chief said.

A Madison County law enforcement dive team recovered Kaleb Jamison’s body Tuesday night, nearly 12 hours after he went missing at The Trails at Madison apartment complex in Canton. The pond is near the apartments.

“This was not the outcome that we were hoping for. Everyone please keep this baby’s family in your prayers,” the Canton Police Department said in a social media post Wednesday.

Kaleb could be seen on doorbell cameras walking away from home, and that prompted a large-scale search, Canton Police Chief Otha Brown told the Clarion Ledger.

Brown told news outlets that the drowning was ruled accidental.
