Famous footballer’s cousin electrocuted in hotel pool
Saturday, 28. July 2012, 06:57
The cousin of the England footballer Jermain Defoe has been killed in a tragic accident while on holiday in St Lucia.
According to reports, Hannah Defoe, 20, was electrocuted
as she dived into a swimming pool at Juliette's Lodge, a hotel in Vieux Fort
close to the island's airport.
Hannah's mother Janet was reportedly taken to hospital
after getting an electric shock as she tried to save her daughter.
An investigation is taking place to find out how the
tragedy happened.
A statement from the St Lucia Tourist Office said:
"We offer our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Hannah
Defoe. We have been touch with the family to offer our support."
The Tottenham Hotspur striker was on the club's pre-season
tour of America when he was told the news.
A statement on Tottenham's website said: "Jermain
Defoe is to return home from our pre-season tour of the US after receiving the
tragic news of the death of his cousin Hannah Defoe while on holiday in St
Lucia.
"Everyone at the club sends their sincere condolences
to Jermain and his family and all our thoughts are with them at this sad
time."
Last month, Defoe was forced to fly home from England's
Euro 2012 camp in Poland following the death of his 49-year-old father Jimmy
from throat cancer.
His half-brother Jade, 26, died after falling into a coma
following a street attack in east London in 2009.
