Description | ROSEAU, Dominica (AP) - Prime Minister Pierre Charles of Dominica, who slashed public spending in a bid to help his island's economy and was a critic of U.S. policy in the Caribbean, has died of an apparent heart attack.
The 49-year-old leader was leaving his office after a Cabinet meeting Tuesday night when he complained of chest pains and slumped over in the back seat of his car while being driven home, said Dr. Irvin Pascal, the country's chief medical officer.
