LEAGUE CITY, Texas - The results of an autopsy performed on a four year old boy who collapsed at soccer practice and later died are still pending, but sources close to the investigation say there may have been swelling around the child's heart.
The boy died Wednesday night after collapsing at the League City YMCA's soccer field. A relative who contacted FOX 26 News has identified the boy as Cade Carpenter.
"Practice started at 6:30 and about 10 minutes later, the little boy complained to his father that his stomach hurt," said Trazanna Moreno, spokesperson for the YMCA. "Almost immediately after that he collapsed."
The YMCA runs a soccer program for kids as young as 3-years-old. Parents submit basic information, but are not required to give medical information. A physical is also not required.
