CrossFit Games suspended following the heartbreaking passing of Lazar Dukic
Lazar Dukic, a Serbian CrossFit athlete, sadly drowned yesterday during a competition, so the Games were officially suspended.
The CEO of CrossFit Don Faul released an official statement at 12:30 p.m. yesterday that an athlete had died. Due to this tragic passing, Don Faul also announced that the events for the rest of the day were cancelled and suspended indefinitely.
Some of the chilling details were released regarding what exactly had happened based on information provided.
- Local authorities received a call around 8 a.m. after officials realized Dukic had not finished the event.
- CBS News Texas then reported that an athlete had drowned around 8 a.m., and a body was seen taken out of the lake in a body bag.
There was a ton of sadness that broke out among the fans after the tragedy was announced. Many were sad, but many were also very angry that not more was done to prevent this from happening, and many complained that help was not offered fast enough. People are blaming CrossFit for not having acted quick enough and want them held responsible. Don Faul did respond to this criticism at a follow-up news conference.
We hope that Lazar Dukic's family gets the closure they deserve, and everyone is looking for answers and for someone to be held responsible for this tragedy. It is unacceptable.
