Pope John Paul I Dies In Sleep At Vatican
Pope John Paul I died in his sleep at about 11 p.m. local time in the Vatican. The 65-year-old pontiff, who had a brief 34 day reign, was found by his private secretary with the light on in his room after health problems marked his life. The death was attributed to an acute myocardial infarction and the papal conclave setup began immediately as cardinals prepared for the selection of the 264th pope.
