Philly toddler apparently drowned in bath as foster mother ‘at her max’ tended the microwave

The Philadelphia police special victims unit is investigating the death of a child who apparently drowned in a bathtub when his foster mother left him unattended to go to the microwave.

Records obtained by The Inquirer and Resolve Philly show that a Harrowgate foster parent left 19-month-old Sy’vir Hill and a second child unsupervised and returned to find Sy’vir submerged in the water.
