EXCLUSIVE: Usher's Stepson Dies After Jetski Accident

Usher's 11-year-old stepson has passed away this morning from injuries suffered in a tragic jetski accident in Georgia earlier this month ... TMZ has learned. Doctors removed 11-year-old Kyle Glover from life support after it was determined the injuries were too severe to overcome. We're told Kyle's mother, Tameka Foster, struggled tremendously with the decision. According to our sources, Tameka is understandably devastated.Glover was injured on July 8 ... as he was riding in an inner tube that was connected to a pontoon in Lake Lanier. According to authorities, a family friend who was riding a jetski behind the pontoon lost control and collided with Glover's tube. The accident is currently under investigation.

This is a cruel, unusual world: little boys dying; people dying in movie

theatre massacres.

I hope all you guys on the Org are safe today, tonight and tomorrow(s).

RIP :*(

I'm telling you this year is eerily similar to 2009. Mike Tyson's son died too that year, and now Usher's, even if step. And a big diva/superstar also died, and tons of other shocking deaths related to overdose.

It's the kind of thing that terrifies you everyday if you are a parent!

Such a hard thing for anyone to recover from!

RIP!

I also feel sorry for the kid that accidentally hit him!

I was hoping for that too.

There was probably little to no brain activity so the plug gets pulled.

pray My heart is heavy hearing about this. My DD(12) has gone tubing with friends. I always worried about her removing her life jacket and drowning.

I never even considered a jetski accident. sad

My heart goes out to Tameka and Kyle's father. No parent should have to go through "planting" (burying) their baby in the ground and walking away. That is going to be such a hard day for that family.

I know. I don't like to think much about it because dang.... only by the grace of God that wasn't my 12 year old.

Life is precious and fragile.
