An investigation is currently being conducted, and a college has cancelled classes following the death of a college football player found in his dorm room.
Kevon Walker, an 18-year-old freshman defensive lineman at St. Francis University, was discovered deceased in his dorm earlier this week.
Reports indicate that he had been feeling unwell for several days prior to his passing, which was tragically revealed by his teammates. The cause of death has not yet been determined, and authorities are looking into the matter.
“The entire department is devastated by the tragic and untimely loss of Kevon,” said Director of Athletics James Downer in a statement.
“Though his time at Saint Francis was brief, he made a significant impact on the football program and was well-liked and respected by his teammates, showing great promise for a bright future with the Red Flash.”
