Greg Plitt, who was well known as a bodybuilder and model before hitting it big on Bravo’s hit show Workout and the upcoming Friends to Lovers, has died at the age of 37. Greg was fatally hit by a Metrolink train on Saturday in Burbank, California.

Authorities are reporting that the incident appears to be an accident and no foul play was involved.

“It does not appear to be a suicide,” Sgt. Scott Meadows told People. “A camera was seized as evidence, but it’s unclear who it belongs to — the victim or a witness. From the sound of it, he was filming something, but I can tell you that no filming permit had been issued.”

Sources at The Daily Mail are backing up the story that was Greg was in the process of filming when the horrendous accident occurred. According to friends, Greg, “stumbled over the tracks with a video camera in his hand… He was filming an ad for a protein shake.”

Maggie Rizer recently arranged for her two dogs to fly with her from New York to San Francisco. The professional model was sure she took all of the precautions necessary, so when she arrived in San Francisco and found out that one of her dogs, a two-year-old golden retriever named Beatrice, had passed away during the flight, she was left devastated and shocked. After a frustratingly difficult time getting the dog’s body back from the airline, she took it to her vet and was appalled when the necropsy showed Bea had died from heatstroke. Maggie has since taken to the internet to express her anger and frustration toward United Airlines with a heartfelt blog entry titled, “United Airlines Killed Our Golden Retriever, Bea.”
