The Wire actor, Lance Reddick

Hollywood actor, Lance Reddick died of heart disease, according to his death certificate.

 

Reddick, who died in March at age 60, had his causes of death listed as ischemic heart disease and atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, according to a document obtained by TMZ on Thursday April 6.


The actor had been discovered in his home on March 17 and was initially reported to have died of natural causes, which the death certificate confirms.

The death certificate also indicated that Reddick would be cremated.

 

The ischemic heart disease and coronary artery disease terms are often used interchangeably, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The dangerous condition can lead to a heart attack, but many people suffering from ischemic heart disease may not realize that they have the condition.

 

It is caused by a buildup of plaque in the walls of arteries leading to the heart, which decreases the available space for blood to travel and can even block the flow completely in severe cases, which is known as atherosclerosis.

 

The narrowed arteries can lead to chest pain and can weaken the heart muscle over time.

 

Reddick's shocking death came amid the publicity campaign for one of his last projects, John Wick: Chapter 4. He appeared as the concierge Charon of the Continental, a hotel that caters exclusively to assassins.

 

The actor had missed the film's premiere in New York City just days before his death which he left unexplained and he was still scheduled for talk show appearances in the days following the shocking news.

 

Just a day before his death, Reddick posted sweet photos of himself relaxing with his three dogs.

 

It was reportedly his wife Stephanie Reddick who found her husband collapsed in the backyard and called for an ambulance.

Reddick will be best remembered for his role as Daniels on the hit HBO crime series The Wire, appearing in all 60 episodes alongside stars including Dominic West and Idris Elba, and also in the movie, John Wick.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league." They did, however, note that they "did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures." "Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said.
