WKMG | Father demands accountability after son with autism dies after wandering from sensory park ...


A 5-year-old child who had autism recently drowned after walking away from an Osceola County playground that was specifically designed for “children on the autism spectrum,” according to a news release. His father, Leonardo Angarita, told News 6 that while he was tending to his other son, he briefly lost sight of Arturo and began searching the park for him. As for what changes he wants to see to improve safety at parks, Angarita said he would like to see higher fences, cameras and water near the playground fenced-off. He also wants Senses Park needs to be secured at all times, to avoid heartache for families.
