Franklin: A young brother and sister died after apparently getting trapped inside a container near a television that had its volume turned up, authorities said on Monday.
David Traub, a spokesman for the Norfolk district attorney in Massachusetts, confirmed the deaths.
Police responded last day after family members found the children together inside the container, which had a lid that could only be opened from the outside. The children were taken to hospitals but did not survive.
Traub said multiple family members were in the house at the time.
Authorities say the deaths appear to be accidental, and relatives are cooperating with investigators.
No names were released.
