MJ 'emergency tape' fake

Washington (ANI): A recording of an emergency call that's being reported as a transmission from the paramedics who took Michael Jackson to UCLA on the day he died has been exposed as a hoax. The recording, which has emerged online, was believed to feature a Los Angeles Fire Department medical worker calling the UCLA hospital.

A voice on the tape says: “Patient is Michael Jackson, the pop star singer. No pulse, no breathing. Unresponsive. Tried to resuscitate him. Unsuccessful. "We've done everything we can. We should be there in five minutes. It doesn't look good. It doesn't look good".

But Los Angeles City Fire Department Captain Steve Ruda has dismissed the tape as a fake, because the alleged paramedic breaks the rules by naming the patient and fails to use the correct terminology. “It is not our conversation. It is not any of the paramedics who treated Michael Jackson," TMZ.com quoted him as saying.
