UPDATE // FEBRUARY 6:

New details have emerged regarding Maddie's unfortunate accident on Sunday. According to a statement by Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff Daniel Edwards obtained by People, the ATV accident took place around 3:00 p.m. on Sunday afternoon on the family's property in full view of Jamie Lynn and husband James Watson.

The report via People:
The child was apparently steering the vehicle to avoid running over a nearby drainage ditch. “In doing so, she overcorrected causing the ATV to enter the pond. The ATV and child were instantly submerged in the water right before their eyes.”

“Within seconds the child’s mother, step-father and other family members reached the pond, dove in and attempted to rescue the child to no avail. The child was trapped and secured by the seatbelt and the ATV’s safety netting. Within two minutes, Acadian Ambulance Services arrived and assisted in freeing the child from the cold waters.”


Maddie is currently in stable but critical condition at a nearby hospital.





UPDATE // FEBRUARY 6:

Sources connected to the Spears family tell TMZ Maddie is currently in critical but stable condition. At the time of the accident, Maddie was "unconscious and taken to a local hospital, where she was airlifted to a New Orleans hospital."

Story developing.
