Hulk Hogan Has Passed Away
Wrestling icon Hulk Hogan has passed away at the age of 71, according to a report from TMZ.
Sources say medics were called to Hogan’s home in Clearwater, Florida, early Thursday morning, July 24, in response to a reported cardiac arrest.
First responders arrived at the scene quickly, and the wrestling legend was taken from his home on a stretcher and into an ambulance.
In a news conference held Thursday afternoon, Clearwater Police Maj. Nate Burnside confirmed that Hogan died at 11:17 a.m.
He also stated there were no signs of foul play or anything suspicious surrounding his death.
Hogan had undergone a neck procedure back in May. The surgery was reportedly a success, and he was said to have recovered quickly. However, last month, US Weekly reported that Hogan had undergone a serious heart surgery, according to sources.
At this time, this has not been confirmed by Hogan’s representatives.
