Backlund Suffers Heart Attack - Dies En Route To Hospital
Quote:
It has been reported that wrestling legend Bob Backlund was found barely conscious in his hotel room last night, and was later pronounced dead in the ambulance on his way to hospital.
It is believed that Mr. Backlund had been in the company of local hooker Katherine Nash at the time of the heart attack, and she was quoted as saying 'I knew something was wrong right away. Normally he goes for a long time, but tonight he only lasted 8 seconds'.
The paramedics reportedly tried their best to revive him, but while briefly conscious Backlund ordered them not to use the on-board defibrillator if his heart should give out again. The paramedics explained that he told them that the equipment was not 'Backlund authorized' and under no circumstances should they use it to revive him.
We will bring you more on this sad story as it comes in.
