Two toddlers drowned when their stroller rolled into an Arizona canal as their mother tried to shoo away a bee, police said.
Alexis Keslar was walking with her 18-month-old twins, Silas and Eli Keslar, along the waterway in Yuma when she momentarily let go of the buggy to fend off the buzzing insect.
"The stroller rolled away from her into the canal, with the boys belted in the seat," police said.
Ms Keslar jumped into the waterway on Friday to try to rescue her children, authorities said, but the strong current washed away the stroller.
The distraught mother called for help after clambering out of the canal's steep sides, police said.
Canal managers stemmed the water flow to help rescuers, who found the boys after searching for about an hour.
The twins were flown to a hospital, but were pronounced dead, police said.
Yuma's canal paths are popular recreational areas, but authorities say they can be dangerous.
"Many people typically do not comprehend how swift the current in these canals are and how deep the water can be," Yuma police said.
"They also do not realise how difficult it is to climb back up many of the canal embankments."
Marlene Gleim, a friend of the boys' grandmother, told the Yuma Sun: "No parent should ever have to lose a child, let alone two at once."
