Medical personnel transported two of the juveniles to different hospitals for further treatment.

The Logansport Police Department spokesperson characterized the incident to Indianapolis' FOX 59 as a "fluke accident."

According to the station, a pinched wire on a pool pump caused a protective cover to break, exposing the wire and shocking five swimmers with contact to the pool water.

Indianapolis is approximately a 90-minute drive south of Logansport, which is situated in Northern Indiana.
