A one-year-old boy has been left without his mother and two siblings after a tragic drowning in Sydney’s south-west.
A horror drowning in the Georges River in Sydney’s southwest has left a one-year-old boy without his mother and two siblings, while friends of the family said they were “absolutely and deeply shocked” by the tragedy.
The family part was well-known in the Vietnamese community around Fairfield. One friend named Tue Le on Facebook referred to Hoai as her “sister” and said they had spoken just two days before the tragedy. She urged her followers to contribute to the GoFundMe. Speaking outside Fairfield police station on Saturday afternoon, Acting Superintendent Luke Scott said the trio were believed to have been visiting the park before walking down to a small pier on the waterfront when they ended up in the river.
