Autopsy Results Pending in N.J. Football Death



WALDWICK, N.J. (AP)  --  Officials are awaiting results of an autopsy conducted on a Waldwick boy who died during football practice on his 13th birthday.

Sean Fisher collapsed while running drills with his recreational football league and could not be resuscitated.

School Superintendent Robert Penna says an undetected heart condition is suspected.

His mother tells The Record of Bergen County her son lost consciousness when he collided with a counselor during a flag rugby camp a few weeks ago.

Sheila Fisher says her son's pediatrician said the incident was most likely not related to his collapse on the football field Monday.

A funeral Mass will be celebrated Friday.
