Atlanta police are investigating the death of an Atlanta Falcons cheerleader.
Police found the body of Tara Tanner, 22, early Sunday at an apartment in the 1100 block of Howell Mill Road.
The Fulton County Medical Examiner's office is awaiting toxicology tests to determine the exact cause of death.
Authorities say there were no obvious signs of trauma to the body.
Tanner had been with the Falcons' cheerleading squad for four years. She graduated from Roswell High School and was attending Georgia State University.
Wasn't sure if this AJC article needed to be excerpted, since it's so short. If so, would appreciate your help.
Ping..sad news about a Falcons cheerleader
Prayers for her family.
Wow...my wife and I knew her in a distant way, My oldest daughter cheered with her (not Falcons level, HS)....Roswell HS is just 2/10 of a mile from my house...
Prayers for her family.....

.....Excuse me, but didn't I read somewhere that "Blubbah" was in the area hawking his work of fiction? Another Arkanside perhaps?
Prayers for the family.
Could be heart failure. In a lot of people the first sign that they have something wrong with their heart is sudden death. It manifests at any age too, although it's not common in the early 20s.
She sure looks awfully skinny. I wonder.....?
Anorexia?
I sincerely doubt that. Clinton isn't even due here until the 21st.
Go easy on the tinfoil.
Have you ever seen a plus size professional cheerleader. Just because a girl is tiny does not mean she has an eating disorder. A good friend of mine is a 33 year old swim suit model. She still looks like the same 102 Lbs. petite 17 year old girl I took to prom in '88. She eats healthy and works out hard every day! She spends a lot of time to maintain her youthful pleasing physique. She has people all the time telling her she is too small and needs to gain weight, and it p!sses her off! Lets wait for the report.
just damn.
You found a 1 1/2 year old post and signed up today to reply?.... Are you the boyfriend since your post says.... [thats when I found her body in her bed]?
