A 'kind' schoolboy has tragically died from a flesh eating bacteria which was reportedly sparked by twisting his ankle running on a treadmill.
The Mirror reports that Jesse Brown, 11, from Florida, US, was an active youngster but his health quickly went downhill after he suffered an ankle injury whilst on a treadmill only a few weeks ago.
His cousin, Megan Brown, said that several days after the injury his mum was shocked to see his leg had gone “splotchy, purple, red” and bruised up.
