Report: Egypt ex-intelligence chief Suleiman dies in U.S.

Omar Suleiman, the former head of Egypt's intelligence services who also served as vice president under Hosni Mubarak, has died in a hospital in the United States, the state-run MENA news agency reported Thursday.

In April, Suleiman announced he was running for president of Egypt, but eventually was disqualified from running.

Omar Suleiman served as vice president under Mubarak before his ouster.
