MUNICIPAL councilors of Pototan, Iloilo failed to save the life of their colleague Francisco Parcon who suffered a heart attack at the height of Monday's session.
Parcon, who was in his sixties, lost consciousness Monday afternoon and did not anymore reach the hospital alive.
Fellow Councilor Pedro Palu-ay said Parcon fell from his seat during the attack.
His co-members boarded him into an ambulance driven by Palu-ay but the councilor's heartbeat faded while they were driving him to the hospital.
