A man named Xie Qiuyuan, who lived in Daxi and worked as a manager at Inventec Corporation, went for a run at Daxi Junior High School alone at around 4 PM the day before yesterday. After running 20 laps, he told a friend that he would take a break before playing basketball. However, as soon as he sat down to rest, he collapsed. Yang Zhongsheng, an officer from the Daxi Police Precinct's Investigation Unit who was also running at the scene, immediately performed CPR on him and called for an ambulance. Despite being rushed to Taoyuan Armed Forces General Hospital for emergency treatment, Xie could not be saved and was pronounced dead. The case has been accepted by the Daxi police and reported to the prosecutor for investigation and autopsy.

According to police investigations, 50-year-old Xie Qiuyuan had a regular exercise routine. The day before yesterday, he ran 20 laps on the standard track at Daxi Junior High School, equivalent to a distance of 8 kilometers, leaving many younger runners at the scene in awe of his stamina. It was unexpected that such an incident would occur.

Yang Zhongsheng, the officer from the Daxi Police Precinct's Investigation Unit who witnessed the incident and administered first aid, stated that Xie appeared to be in good spirits after finishing his run and was chatting and laughing with others at the scene. However, he suddenly collapsed as soon as he sat down, shocking everyone present. Although Yang immediately performed CPR, he was unable to save Xie's life and expressed deep regret over the outcome.
