Pregnant former
Olympian suddenly collapses and dies in restaurant…
Heavily
pregnant former Olympian, 26 year old Meskerem Legesse, suddenly collapsed and
died while having lunch with her two year old son in a restaurant in
Connecticut on Monday July 15th.
The
Ethiopia runner, who was three weeks from her due date (pictured above minutes
before collapsing) was given CPR at the restaurant before an ambulance rushed
her to a hospital where she was declared dead. Fortunately the doctors were
able to save her baby.
The
cause of death was unclear but her friend told reporters that the professional
runner had suffered heart problems in the past and that's why she retired early
from sports. So sad! RIP, Meskerem!
