Paramedics who arrived at the scene performed prolonged resuscitation efforts and evacuated the man to Hadassah Har Tsofeh Hospital, where doctors ultimately declared him deceased.
According to reports, the man was a Gur Hasid residing in Bnei Brak who had come to Jerusalem to celebrate the holiday of Simchat Torah with the Rebbe of Gur. Gershon Genaor, a United Hatzalah paramedic who responded to the scene, stated that passengers on the bus reported seeing the man collapse during the ride.
