Exodus Tyson, the 4-year-old daughter of former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson, died at a Phoenix hospital Monday after what police called a "tragic accident" on a home treadmill.
Exodus was on life support after accidentally hanging herself on a cord dangling from a treadmill in her central Phoenix home. She died at 11:45 a.m., ABC News affiliate KNXV-TV reported, citing police Sgt. Andy Hill.
"Somehow, she was playing on this treadmill, and there's a cord that hangs under the console; it's kind of a loop," Hill said. "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."
Brief footage from KNXV-TV showed the ex-champ arriving at the hospital Monday in a white button-up shirt and black pants, and looking around with a frown before going inside.

Exodus Tyson, the 4-year-old daughter of former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson is in critical condition at a Phoenix hospital after her 7-year-old brother found her hanging from a cord from an exercise treadmill.
Exodus is on life support and in extremely critical condition, according to a statement released by the Phoenix police department.
Phoenix Police Sgt. Andy Hill told ABC News affiliate KNXV-TV it appeared that the treadmill cord had been wrapped around the child's neck.
The incident occurred while the child's mother was cleaning the house and the toddler was playing in a playroom, according to a statement from Phoenix police.
When the 34-year-old woman sent her 7-year-old son to see what little Exodus was doing, the boy found her "in distress," the police statement said.
He called his mother, who found her on a treadmill with a cable that was attached to the exercise machine wrapped around her neck, police said.
Police said the child's mother ran into the room, freed her from the cord, called 911 and then started CPR.
