Popular female DJ K-Swift died in a pool party accident in her hometown of Baltimore, Maryland. Adam May reports the body of 29-year-old Khia
Edgerton, also known as "K-Swift" was found Monday morning at
her northeast Baltimore home in the 4300-block of Arizona Avenue.
Police initially responded to Good Samaritan Hospital for crowd control. They interviewed people there.
They
say K-Swift was giving a pool party at her home earlier in the day. She
had been drinking extensively before getting into the pool.
Witnesses
told police there were several people in the pool when Edgerton jumped
in, but none of the swimmers were alarmed when she didn't immediately
resurface.
There were also lifeguards present.
After time had passed and she still didn't surface, they got alarmed and jumped in.
They
were able to pull her out to the side of the pool. Medics were called
but no one at the party attempted CPR while they were waiting.
When
medics got there, they attempted CPR to no avail. She was transported
to Good Samaritan Hospital where she was pronounced dead.
When police arrived at the house to investigate the pool was very cloudy and the area was dimly lit.
She broke ground as a female DJ on 92 Q Jams and rose to female mix show coordinator.
She is one of the only women in the country to hold the title.
