The former NFL running back - who led a life of tumult - has died aged 76

It's difficult to overestimate just how famous, celebrated and revered OJ Simpson - whose death at the age of 76 was announced tonight - was before that warm California night on June 12, 1994.

Simpson said: "This is very hard for me to do this because it's hypothetical. Charlie shows up, a guy I'd recently become friends with and he told me you won't believe what's going on over there .
