LOS ANGELES (AP) — The wife of Indiana Pacers owner Herb Simon directed CPR efforts on a lawyer who suffered an apparent heart attack in a Los Angeles courthouse where Bui Simon and her husband are being sued by former household help.
Bui Simon immediately rushed over Monday and directed a man on how to do chest compressions as the victim lay motionless.
Bystanders say the stricken attorney walked out of another courtroom down the hall and suddenly fell to the ground. Bui Simon shouted commands to attorney Robert Vargas, who was doing the CPR and continued to urge him on until medical personnel arrived.
The Thai-born former Miss Universe is in court contesting the lawsuit. She says she takes CPR training once a year because she has children.
