Tragic Sunday: Young Girl Swept Into Storm Drain
What began as an ordinary Sunday evening, filled with the innocent joy of children’s laughter and play, ended in devastation for the family of 5-year-old Zaria Miller. The little girl, full of life and curiosity, had been outside with her brothers near Bahia Vista Street, not far from Sarasota Christian School. The sun was beginning to set, and for a few fleeting moments, the neighborhood echoed with the carefree energy of children running and shouting. No one could have imagined that within minutes, tragedy would unfold.
