Bass, who worked as a nurse and physician assistant before getting into politics, checked that he was breathing and then took his pulse.
Despite the presence of numerous police officers, “the only one who immediately knew what to do was the mayor” Fiegener recalled, adding that he has known the photographer for more than a decade and was personally shaken up by the incident.
