Aspiring doc recalls saving LIRR passenger's life

On March 18, Avi Hatami, a medical student from Syosset, was on the 7:49 a.m. LIRR train out of Syosset when there was a call for medical assistance. Hatami performed CPR on Bradley Wieboldt, of East Norwich until the train pulled into the Westbury station and EMTs took over. On Wednesday, the two men met for the first time since then. They hugged, and Wieboldt thanked Hatami for saving his life.
