Louisiana authorities are continuing to investigate the cause of death of Carlos Thomas, father of Bucs inside linebacker Devin White. Thomas was incarcerated at the time of his passing on Thursday.
The Natchitoches Parish Sheriff’s Office issued a statement Monday indicating that Thomas, 45, was transported from the Natchitoches Parish Detention Center to the Natchitoches Regional Medical Center after complaints of severe back pain. He suddenly became unresponsive in the ambulance as he was being transported.
Life-saving efforts were conducted by staff at the medical center but unsuccessful, according to the statement.
