A 24-year old Canadian Olympic 400 metres runner, Daundre Barnaby has been reported dead in a swimming accident.

The Olympian, who has been described as an outstanding athlete was said to have drowned  after a strong current swept him out to sea as he swam with team-mates during a training camp on the Caribbean island of St Kitts.

Barnaby was sixth in his heat at London 2012 and reached the semi-finals at last year's Glasgow Commonwealth Games.

Athletics Canada chief executive Rob Guy called Barnaby "an outstanding athlete and an even better young man". BBC
