RPD: Child Dies After Falling into Grease Trap at Tim Hortons

A three year old child is dead after falling into a grease trap at the Tim Hortons on University Avenue.

Rochester Police says the boy was with his mother at the restaurant, and somehow got away from her for a brief period of time.

Police say a 911 call was immediately made, and the boy was found inside the grease trap. Attempts were made to revive the boy, but they were unsuccessful.

The grease trap is described as being flush with the ground, similar to a manhole with a flat top and about 2 1/2 to 3 feet in diameter.
