Sheikh Maktoum al-Maktoum dies at age 62
Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid al-Maktoum has died.
Who?
He was the ruler of Dubai.
Where?
He was the prime minister and vice president of the United Arab Emirates, and one of the world's leading owner-breeders.
What?
He died Wednesday at the age of 62 in Australia, apparently of a heart attack. He had been vacationing at the Palazzo Versace Hotel on Australia's Gold Coast in Queensland, not far from Brisbane.
Sheikh Maktoum's father, Rashid al-Maktoum, co-founded the United Arab Emirates - of which Dubai is a principal state - along with the recently deceased Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan al-Nahyan of Abu Dhabi.
