According to KPLCTV.com, a child collapsed at a local school during “Fun Day events,” and later died at a local hospital.

A 911 call was placed, and the student was transported by ambulance to Lake Charles Memorial Hospital where the student later passed away,” said a spokeswoman with the Calcasieu Parish School Board.
