Michael Jackson, "The King Of Pop" was rushed by ambulance from his Holmby Hills home to the hospital after suffering a fatal heart attack. TMZ reports say that paramedics performed CPR on Jackson while transporting him to the hospital. When they arrived, Jackson had no pulse and was never able to reestablish a pulse.
CBS learned from brother Jermaine Jackson in a press conference that Emergency Room physicians, cardiologists, and other doctors worked for an hour to try to revive Michael, but were unsuccessful.
The pop icon was pronounced dead after arriving at the hospital in a deep coma. He was 50 years old and is survived by his three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince “Blanket” Michael Jackson II.
The American recording artist was widely known for his music career that expanded four decades. Jackson began his career at 11 as a member of the Jackson 5. He began his solo career in 1971 while still a member of his family’s band. He’s been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame twice, received 13 Grammy Awards, as well as 13 number one singles in his solo career. This is a great loss to the Music World across all genres, Michael will be sorely missed.
