Young Irish pilot in US Air Force collapses and dies playing football
Brian Kane, aged 29, a native of Donegal town, collapsed during a game of American football at the Cannon Air Force Base near Clovis, New Mexico last Saturday.
It is the latest incident of a young athlete dying suddenly while playing sport following several similar tragedies this year, including the death of Tyrone GAA captain Cormac McAnallen and Ireland under-21 rugby international John McCall.
