Fall Killed Bowler, Autopsy Finds
Hall of Fame bowler Earl Anthony died of a fall down the stairs at a friend’s suburban Milwaukee home, authorities said Wednesday.
The 63-year-old, six-time PBA bowler of the year sustained head trauma in the fall, the Waukesha County medical examiner’s office said. The death certificate did not list any other injuries.
Anthony probably died shortly before being discovered by his friend Ed Baur at the bottom of the stairs at his New Berlin home about 8 a.m. Tuesday, the medical examiner concluded.
Toxicology tests were conducted but it will probably be weeks before the results are released, the spokeswoman said.
