Police in Tampa, Fla., say they have no reason to believe the fall that killed a Cirque du Soleil aerialist Saturday "is anything except a tragic accident," as their investigation into the death of Yann Arnaud continues this week. Arnaud, a married father of two, was performing an aerial-straps number when he fell to the stage during a performance of the Cirque du Soleil show Volta in Tampa. Arnaud was transported to a local hospital after the fall, where he died of his injuries a few hours later, according to a statement issued by Cirque du Soleil Sunday. Cirque du Soleil said it was gathering information about what happened and collaborating with local authorities in their investigation. He graduated from France's Institut National du Sport, de l'Expertise et de la Performance in 2001, according to his Facebook page.
