The girl, believed to be around 5 to 7 years old, had dug a 5- to 6-foot-deep hole at a beach at Lauderdale-by-the-Sea in Fort Lauderdale around 3 p.m. Tuesday, when it caved in on her and a 7-year-old boy, NBC Miami reported.
The weight of the sand completely buried the girl, while the boy was buried up to his chest.
