PHOENIX (AP) - The 4-year-old daughter of boxer Mike Tyson died at a hospital Tuesday, a day after her neck apparently got caught in a treadmill cord at her Phoenix home, police said.

Mike Tyson left Las Vegas for Phoenix upon hearing of his daughter's accident. (Ross D. Franklin / Associated Press)
Exodus Tyson was pronounced dead just before noon, police Sgt. Andy Hill said. She had been on life support and police have said their investigation showed her injury on Monday was a "tragic accident."
"There are no words to describe the tragic loss of our beloved Exodus," the family said in a statement. "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."
Police said Exodus either slipped or put her head in the loop of a cord hanging under the console. Her 7-year-old brother found her and told their mother. She took Exodus off the cord, called 911 and tried to revive her.
Responding officers and firefighters performed CPR as they took the girl to the hospital.
Former heavyweight champion Tyson was in Las Vegas at the time of the accident and flew Monday to Phoenix, where he was seen entering the hospital.
The family's home is in a modest, quiet neighborhood. Neighbors say they saw Tyson there from time to time and the children played outside regularly. Dinka Radic, who lives across the street, says the little girl would ask her if she had any chocolate in the house. When Radic would get some and give it to her, Exodus would hug the woman's knees and "kiss, kiss, kiss."

The death of his child in such an unusual accident adds an awful chapter to the boxer's troubled life.


Peace be upon you

When I first heard about this I thought about my own daughter.
I hope the brother is doing as well as any one can after such a tragic accident.

extremely saddening-only 4

Who was watching her? Someone that young should always have supervision especially if they start playing on something that might cause injury.

Things like this are very hard for anyone to take.

My heart goes out to Mike and his entire family.

Blessings for the girl and the family

I think Tyson needs to go to a Babalawo because it seems demons are following him.

This story really hurt my heart. I have a 3 year old brother and I can not imagine life without him. A piece of my heart is with their family during this trying time.
