Mike Tyson's 4-year-old daughter has died, Usmagazine.com has confirmed.

"I was just advised by investigators that Exodus Tyson was pronounced deceased at 11:45 a.m. today at the hospital," a rep for the Phoenix Police Department told Us in a statement Tuesday. "Our sympathies go out to the family."

The boxer's daughter was on life support and in critical condition after being found by her 7-year-old brother hanging from a treadmill cord, according to FOX News, which first reported the story.

See the day's top news photos.

Exodus was playing near the exercise equipment while her mother was cleaning in a separate room at 10:30 Monday morning. The mom sent the brother to look for her. After finding her in distress, he alerted his mother, who found Exodus on a treadmill with what has been described as a cable around her neck, according to police, who call it a "tragic accident."

She immediately took the cable off her daughter, called 911 and began performing CPR. Exodus was taken to St. Joe's Hospital.

Tyson, 42, flew into Arizona from Las Vegas after hearing of the incident. He was seen entering the hospital Tuesday morning.

    Mike; I am so sorry for your loss. There is no greater pain than that of losing a child. Please know that God did not take your daughter. It was never his plan for people to die. Especially little ones. Satan causes people to die. God brings them back. That's why the Bible calls him the God of all Comfort. I hope that you will turn to him for strength and courage to help you with your gri
