Mike Tyson's Daughter Dies After Treadmill Accident

Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson‘s 4-year-old daughter, Exodus, has died after her neck apparently got tangled in a dangling treadmill cord at home in Phoenix, Ariz.

On Monday (May 25), Exodus was found by her 7-year-old brother Miguel Tyson and later untangled by her mother. She was listed in “extremely critical condition” at Phoenix’s St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center and the following day, she died of her injuries.

The police has said, “Either she slipped or put her head in the loop, but it acted like a noose, and she was obviously unable to get herself off of it.”

Tyson, who had been in Las Vegas at the time of the accident, says in a statement, “We are grateful for the tremendous outpouring of love and prayers from all over the world. There are no words to describe the tragic loss of our beloved Exodus. We ask you now to please respect our need at this very difficult time for privacy to grieve and try to help each other heal.”

Exodus is one of Tyson‘s six children whom he had with several different women.

Our deepest condolences and sympathies go out to the Tyson family.
