ST. LOUIS, Missouri (LifeSiteNews) — A second former football player has died suddenly in as many weeks.
Ahmaad Galloway, an eighth-grade English teacher and a running back at the University of Alabama from 1999 to 2002, was found dead at his apartment in St. Louis, Missouri, on Monday. He was 42 years old.
According to WVTM 13, officials at Compton-Drew Middle School arranged a welfare check at Galloway’s apartment after he failed to show up for class without notice. A medical examiner is currently investigating the cause of death.
“Ahmaad was always on time, very responsible, so we knew something might be wrong,” said principal Susan Reid. “There wasn’t anything disrupted at Ahmaad’s apartment, so we are thinking that it could have been a medical issue.”
Reid told TMZ that Galloway attended a student basketball game on the Saturday before his death and did not display any signs of trouble. Students have been paying tribute to their beloved teacher this week, making signs and banners while his classroom door stays shut, per WVTM.
