A Premier League match between Luton Town and AFC Bournemouth was suspended Saturday after Luton center back Tom Lockyer went into cardiac arrest during the game.
Lockyer collapsed on the pitch in the second half and received immediate medical attention from team paramedics at Vitality Stadium in Bournemouth. Lockyer was stretchered off the field and transferred to a hospital; Luton Town later confirmed that the 29-year-old defender suffered a cardiac arrest but was “thankfully responsive” and in stable condition.
The match, tied 1—1 at the time of the Lockyer’s sudden collapse, was suspended.
