ATLANTA - A tragedy for Usher and his ex-wife.
The singer's stepson has died. Kile Glover was 11 and was a son of Usher's ex-wife, Tameka Foster.
The child was hurt in a boating accident two weeks ago.
Since the boy was run over by a personal watercraft on Lake Lanier on July 6, he had been hospitalized with a major brain injury.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports Kile died Saturday morning at an Atlanta area hospital.
And a funeral home in Atlanta confirms it is handling funeral arrangements for the youngster.
Authorities say the accident is still under investigation.
Before the accident, Usher had been in a legal battle with his ex-wife arising from a custody fight over the two sons they had together.
