SEVERN -- A toddler drowned in the bathtub at his home yesterday as his mother briefly talked to someone at the door, Anne Arundel County police said.
Police said Marcus Daniel Price, 19-months, of the 1700 block of Richfield Drive, was being bathed by his mother, whose name was not available, around 5 p.m. when the mother left to answer a knock at the door.
While the mother was speaking to the person for a few minutes, she sent her daughter to check on the little boy.
