A 4-year-old Texas boy named Levi Driver died after he was struck in the head with a 5-foot tombstone while at a cemetery.

According to Daily Mail:

Levi Driver was playing while his family was nearby visiting a gravesite at the Ector County Cemetery when a nearly 100-year-old headstone toppled over Friday afternoon, Odessa Police spokesman Cpl. Steve LeSueur said.

The child was taken to Odessa Regional Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.

Police aren’t clear on how the tombstone fell, but according to reports, it was located in the oldest section of the cemetery. We pray for Levi’s family during this devastating time.
