Northern Territory Police advise that a six-year-old girl has sadly drowned at Kakadu National Park.
On Saturday 7 March, the child was at Motor Car Falls with family and friends. At approximately 5:30pm, the group were swimming at the base of the falls when there was a sudden surge of water and a fast flowing current swept the little girl away.
The group immediately searched for her without success.
Multi-agency search resources were deployed to the 4wd-only access area.
The girl’s body was located by Territory Response Group members earlier today.
