The person who held Paula Dean at gunpoint died from heart problems, a pure trigger … TMZ has discovered.
Eugene Thomas King Jr. died from hypertensive and arteriosclerotic heart problems, the New York Metropolis Medical Examiner’s Officer tells us.
In response to the Mayo Clinichypertensive and arteriosclerotic heart problems is prompted when high-blood stress damages the arteries and causes plaque to construct up. That is thought-about a pure reason for loss of life by the M.E.
We broke the story … King was discovered unresponsive in his Brooklyn condominium simply after 5 PM on Thursday. Emergency Medical Service personnel pronounced him useless on the scene.
Again in 1987, King dedicated armed theft … and Deen, who was working as a financial institution teller on the time, says he held a gun to her head. He was caught and sentenced to 25 years in jail for that crime and one other theft.
In 2013 — after Deen used a racial slur — King got here to her protection … claiming she was being “persecuted” for making one small mistake in judgment and reacting out of anger. In the identical Inside Version interview, he apologized as soon as once more for holding her at gunpoint.
Eugene was 75.
