...while the police are "just standing there"?? ???:
The husband of Soon Chung Park, 74, was reportedly at the crime scene of the shooting in Atlanta that occurred last week, just minutes after his wife’s death. Believing she had only fainted, Gwangho Lee, 38, attempted to resuscitate his wife using CPR, as the only officer on the scene was “just standing there,” he said in an interview with the Daily Beast.

Lee was on his way to Gold Spa, one of the three Asian-owned businesses that gunman Robert Aaron Long targeted, when he got a text from his wife’s friend that the spa was being robbed. The friend, an employee of the spa that Park managed and cooked for, told Lee to call the police. He responded with a sigh of relief when he learned that the intruder was firing blanks, as the spa employee had initially believed. When Lee arrived at the scene, he was met by a police officer and the same friend that he’d been messaging, who then told him that his wife might have fainted. Once inside, he found Park and mistook the blood around her mouth as an injury caused by the fall. He realized she wasn’t breathing and shouted at an idle police officer, “This is emergency! Where is the ambulance?” Lee remained by his wife’s side as they eventually took her body away. Park was one of the six Asian women of the eight total victims that were killed by Long on the evening of March 16.
