His wife’s attempt to bring him back to life through CPR before an ambulance arrived did not work. He was pronoucned dead at a hospital. According to an eye witness, “All of a sudden he collapsed and fell on his back. People came to him right away. It didn’t look like he was breathing. People started pumping his chest,” said Tuvia Yamnik.
