Super sad story to start off the New Year.
Dave Martin was a legendary AP Photographer and was shooting photos (like the one above) of Duke vs. Texas A&M when he collapsed from an apparent heart attack at the conclusion of the Chick-Fil-A Bowl.
It is with deep sadness to report we have lost AP photographer Dave Martin, an icon in photojournalism, tonight at the chick fil a bowl.
