(AP) A deadly strain of E. coli spread from child to child at a Washington state day care, killing one and sickening three others despite what health officials determined were appropriate hygienic practices.

The four children were hospitalized, and Elizabeth Winter of the Washington state Department of Early Learning said her department was notified Friday that one of them, a 4-year-old boy, had died.

Fletch Family Daycare – a tidy single-story yellow rambler on a large lot in Vancouver, Wash. – is closed.
