An 18-year-old high school basketball player in Detroit is on life support after going into cardiac arrest during a game on Tuesday night.
Detroit Public Schools Community District superintendent Nikolai Vitti sent a message late Tuesday night, announcing that Cartier Woods, a senior at Northwestern High School, “went into cardiac arrest” while he was playing in the varsity basketball home game against Detroit Douglass. Woods was given CPR before being rushed to Henry Ford Hospital, about a mile away from the school. The superintendent wrote that Woods was placed on life support at the hospital and “the next 24 hours are critical for his survival.”
A spokesperson for DPSCD said later on Wednesday afternoon that he remains on life support and they are not releasing any further information at this time.
His aunt and legal guardian, Dwanda Woods, says the 18-year-old has been playing sports since he was 10 and has dreams of continuing to play in to college next year.
Woods says her nephew had no known heart conditions. She says paramedics delivered CPR for 40-60 minutes after he collapsed.
