Mike Tyson’s daughter on life support

4-year-old Exodus involved in freak accident on treadmill

Mike Tyson was in Las Vegas at the time of his daughter's accident

Mike Tyson’s daughter Exodus is fighting for her life in hospital.

The 4-year-old was playing on an exercise machine at her home in Phoenix yesterday when her neck got caught in a cable.

Her 7-year-old brother found her and alerted their mum, who was in another room.

‘Somehow she was playing on this treadmill, and there’s a cord that hangs under the console – it’s kind of a loop,’ Phoenix police sergeant Andy Hill tells Fox News.

‘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.’

Exodus was rushed to the nearby St Joseph’s Hospital after her mother failed to revive her.

She remains on life support.
