Carl Crawford's home was the scene of an accidental double drowning last week.

Carl Crawford experienced a very traumatic tragedy at his home in Houston last week as it was reported that a young child and a 25-year-old woman passed away after drowning in his pool. As the story goes, a child wandered off into the poolside area and eventually fell in. The young woman noticed this and went after him to save him but neither were able to get out of the pool. When paramedics showed up, neither individual could be revived.

Recently, Crawford took to the 1501 Entertainment Instagram account where he expressed his sadness over the tragedy. As he noted, he still thinks about the individuals that were lost and he continues to pray for the families.

Per Crawford:

"My Hearts Heavy. The tragic events that occurred at my home will be with me forever. I'm at a loss for words I've struggled all week to manage my emotions and I keep thinking of the families of those who've passed and their grief, I know they have it the hardest. They are the first and last thing I think of these days. Please keep them in your prayers, I know they will always be in mine."

This is a very difficult time for everyone and involved and our hearts are with those who were affected.
