GUATEMALA CITY - Software pioneer John McAfee did
not have a heart attack in Guatemala as originally thought, but is
suffering from stress and hypertension, his lawyer Telesforo Guerra said
on Thursday.
"He never had a heart attack.
Nothing like that," Guerra said in Guatemala City. "I'm not a doctor.
I'm just telling you what the doctors told me. He was suffering from
stress, hypertension and tachycardia (an abnormally rapid hearbeat)."
After being rushed to a hospital in an ambulance on Thursday, McAfee,
67, was later spirited out of the building out of sight of reporters and
into a police patrol car, Guerra said.
McAfee,
who is fighting deportation from Guatemala, was detained on Wednesday
after crossing illegally into the country from neighboring Belize.
Police in Belize want to question McAfee in connection with his
neighbor's murder.
Earlier, Guerra said McAfee had suffered two mild heart attacks in the morning. — Reuters
