A 26-year-old Houston Fire Department cadet died early Tuesday morning apparently of natural causes after collapsing last week during routine physical training.

Conway M. Johnson had just completed an early morning jog on April 29 when he collapsed. He was taken to Hermann Memorial Hospital in critical condition and remained hospitalized for the last week. Johnson showed signs of improvement before worsening Monday, fire officials said.

An autopsy will be performed by the Harris County Medical Examiner’s office.
