Usher’s son, Usher Raymond V, was sent to the hospital after he had a serious accident on Monday, it was reported.

TMZ said on Tuesday that the accident took place at around 6 p.m. in Atlanta. The 5-year-old boy is now in the ICU of an undisclosed hospital.

The website reported that the child was playing with his aunt at a pool when he saw a toy in the pool’s drain. The child reached for it and got his hand stuck.

The aunt dove in and tried to rescue him but was unsuccessful. Two men working at the house then came out and got the boy out.

Usher Raymond V is the singer’s oldest son. TMZ reported that Usher and his ex-wife, Tameka Raymond, are at the hospital.
