One of two girls who plunged through the partially frozen surface of a pond near their Red Deer-area home on Friday has died, CTV News has learned.

A five-year-old girl and her three-year-old sister were airlifted to an Edmonton hospital in critical condition on Friday morning.

A source has confirmed to CTV Edmonton's Amanda Anderson that the younger girl has died.

Neither police nor staff at the Stollery Children's Hospital would confirm that the three-year-old had passed away.
