Man Shot by Cheney Has Heart Attack
Vice President Cited After Blasting Hunting Buddy With Bird Shot
By LYNN BREZOSKY and NEDRA PICKLER, AP CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (Feb. 14) -
The 78-year-old lawyer who was shot by Vice President Dick Cheney in a hunting
accident has some birdshot lodged in his heart and he had "a minor heart attack"
Tuesday morning, hospital officials said. The victim, Harry Whittington,
was immediately moved back to the intensive care unit for further treatment,
said Peter Banko, the administrator at Christus Spohn Hospital Corpus
Christi-Memorial in Texas.
Banko said there was an irregularity in the
heartbeat caused by a pellet, and doctors performed a cardiac catheterization.
Whittington expressed a desire to leave the hospital, but Banko said he would
probably stay for another week to make sure more shot doesn't move to other
organs or to other part of his body.............
