Any news on his status? I hope the initial claim on here of no vital signs was wrong

They have gun control in Japan and it actually works there.

Tried it. Too many people going there and choking the servers. Timed out on me.

Watching live news broadcast here in Japan now . Doesn’t sound good for Abe . His heart stopped and they are massaging his heart in helicopter on way to hospital .

Yep. This will probably hit Trump and Melania pretty hard.

It’s early yet, so all news is suspect, even the reported gun shot. One report said he had a heart attack after the purported assassination attempt.

His heart stopped and they are massaging his heart in helicopter on way to hospital.

If they don't restart his heart in a minute, even if they manage to bring him back to life a couple minutes later, he'll be in vegative state. Of course, this is all speculation at this point.
