Investigation into sudden death of student

COMPTON, Calif.

Officials said Luis Fraire collapsed on Tuesday while walking toward the boys' locker room. The seventh grader was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The case was turned over to homicide investigators because of the boy's age, but foul play is not suspected.

A sheriff's department spokesman said the boy had heart problems and had complained of chest pains.
