Nabeel Qureshi - apologist and author of Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus and No God But One:  Allah or Jesus? has passed away due to stomach cancer.  He was a convert to Christianity from the Ahmadiyya sect of Islam.  He was 34.

Nabeel came like a streak of lightning, brightened the night sky, and has returned to the One who gave the power to do what he did.

Sad news indeed. I knew him through David Wood's videos. Might have to pick up his books, since his death did not end the problem of islam in the west.
