John Travolta’s 16-year-old son has died

John Travolta’s 16-year-old son has died.
Teenager Jett was found lying in a bathtub at 11.40am on Friday morning at his family’s Bahamas holiday home where he was staying with his Hollywood actor father, his mother Kelly Preston and eight-year-old sister Ella Bleu.
Jett had a history of fits and it is believed he experienced a seizure and fell and hit his head.
He was found by a caretaker and immediately rushed to a hospital in Freeport – where the home is situated - on Grand Bahama Island but was pronounced dead on arrival.
A police spokesman said: “Information is that Jett suffered from seizures. He was last seen when he went to use the bathroom at their residence.”

Sources at the Freeport Grand Bahama Police Department tell TMZ the Serious Crimes Section is conducting an investigation into the death of Jett Travolta, but cops don't believe any crime was involved.

A detective tells us the investigation is being run out of the Central Detective Unit, Serious Crimes Section, because of the high profile nature of the death.

John Travolta's lawyer and close friend, Michael McDermott and family attorney Michael Ossi, tell TMZ it appears Jett's fatal injury was the result of hitting his head on the bathtub, toilet seat, or both. And they say the intimation that Jett went undiscovered for hours is absolutely false.

Police have said the last time anyone saw Jett was when he went to the bathroom on January 1st. His body was discovered by nanny Jeff Katharain the next day at 10 AM. In fact, McDermott and Ossi say it appears Jett went back and forth to his room and the fatal injury occurred "very shortly" before Jett was found on the bathroom floor -- McDermott called it a "small window of time."

Travolta, 54, and his 46-year-old wife are being comforted by friends, including the actor’s corporate and commercial attorney Michael McDermott, at their beachside residence.
McDermott said: “We are all here and trying to help in any way we can. Their pain is evident. Both are grieving.”
Jett was diagnosed with Kawasaki Disease when he was just two. The illness causes inflammation of the blood vessels in young children and affects the skin, mouth, and lymph nodes.
It is believed Preston blamed household cleaners and fertilisers for his condition, and at one stage devout Scientologist Travolta put his son on a detox programme based on the teachings of the controversial religion - which was created by science-fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard.
An autopsy is now planned for Jett to determine the cause of his death
Former Bahamas tourism minister and parliament member Obie Wilchcombe revealed the autopsy is scheduled to take place on Monda , saying: “We expect a quick resolution. John spoke with the minister of health and the doctors. They’re very quick to resolve things. People in the old Bahama community are in shock.”
