Authorities say a 7-year-old Indiana girl has died after being pulled from a swimming hole in rural southwestern Michigan. The Berrien County sheriff's department says Sadie Geigler of Michigan City was taken Monday night to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead. 

Rescuers had responded to a report of a drowning at a rural property in Galien Township, which is located near the Michigan-Indiana state line. Authorities say two other girls were swimming with her and tried unsuccessfully to help her. They weren't injured. The death is under investigation by the sheriff's department.
