Ilir Ademi is suing a New York Sports Club in Queens for its staff allegedly failing to administer CPR or make use of their defibrillator when his wife suffered a heart arrhythmia and died there last spring. His 25-year-old bride Dari Gracova was already brain dead by the time EMTs arrived at the the gym fifteen minutes after she first collapsed. Ademi claims that as his wife lay convulsing on the floor, club employees "came and moved everyone away from her" and then kept them away, refusing to use the automated external defibrillators that are required by law. NYSC has denied responsibility for the death after being hit with the $6 million suit Friday.
