Denver Man Removed From US Bound Flight From Dominican Republic Dies Of Illness

A Denver Man is the latest US tourist to die in the Dominican Republic this year, with the total confirmed deaths now at 11 people. Khalid Adkins died on Tuesday, which was confirmed by the State Department to USA Today.

Adkins was on vacation with his daughter, Mia, in the Dominican Republic on a Caribbean vacation when he fell ill.

Mia tells Denver’s 9 News that her father had began complaining about a painful bump that was on his leg right before her departure back to the states. They checked in with the hotel’s medical clinic but skipped treatment, deciding that if the pain worsened, they would revisit the situation.

Due to the illness, the father booked an earlier return flight home but was told to disembark due to his symptoms. His sister-in-law Marla Strick reported to Fox 31 that while on the plane he was dripping with sweat and vomited in the plane’s bathroom.

Adkin’s was reportedly in perfect health when he left Colorado, and after being removed from the plane, he was taken to Santo Domingo where it was reported his breathing was really bad and his kidneys were failing.

The family was not told of his death, but rather found out after Mia repeatedly called the hospital Wednesday morning.

Authorities are conducting an autopsy and investigation to determine the official cause of death, according to 9 News.
