Witness Doug Boehner stated that there was an enormous response to the agonizing search for the youngster who was retrieved from a pond behind Uncle Julio’s at Stonebriar Center in Frisco on Saturday night. The girl was seven years old.
At approximately nine o’clock in the evening, the police got complaints that a child of seven years old had gone missing from the eatery.
Doug Boehner stated that he was going to be dining there on that particular evening. When he first saw divers, he immediately realized that something was amiss.
As soon as I saw the water, I was convinced that someone had fallen into it. Boehner stated that they were able to observe the firefighters as they began to go through the vegetation that was around the lake.
During their investigation of the area, the officers discovered the girl’s shoes close to the pond. Boehner stated that there was a significant participation.
“So many vehicles,” Boehner remarked out loud. “They had ladder trucks, they had drones, they had divers come out.”
According to Boehner, he and a number of other customers pitched in to assist with the hunt.
I strolled around the edge of the area and then returned to the area near to the highway. Nothing was ever seen by me. According to Boehner, a few other individuals also jumped down.
Following a search that lasted approximately thirty minutes, the police have reported that they discovered the girl unresponsive. The girl was pronounced dead at the hospital after the first responders attempted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
In his statement, Boehner stated that he is still processing what he saw.
“I didn’t expect to see any of that,” Boehner told reporters. “It was probably one of the worst things I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Our entire family is in mourning at the awful loss of this family. During this trying time, we want them to know that we are thinking of them and sending our condolences. We are requesting that the community have this family in their thoughts and prayers.
