Woolmer broke bone while vomitting

KINGSTON: Pakistan cricket coach Bob Woolmer broke a bone in his throat while vomiting, Sky Television reported on Thursday.   

They reported that Woolmer suffered the injury after falling against a toilet bowl. The report was unsourced.   

Woolmer died on Sunday after being discovered unconscious in his hotel bedroom less than 24 hours after Pakistan had suffered a shock World Cup exit at the hands of debutants Ireland.   

The report ran shortly before a news conference at the Pakistan team hotel in Kingston was expected to start. It could not be immediately verified by Reuters.   

A source close to the matter informed that the team were in a meeting with Jamaican police deputy commissioner Mark Shields. It had lasted over an hour.
