The family of a woman who collapsed and died while playing a slot machine at Wynn Las Vegas is suing the company for negligence and wrongful death.
The lawsuit claims Wynn employees failed to “reasonably assess” if Billie Sakkab, 74, required emergency medical attention after she collapsed while playing slots alone during the resort’s Super Bowl viewing party last year. The suit alleges that Wynn employees did not access an available portable automated external defibrillator fast enough to prevent cardiac arrest.
Nabil Y. Sakkab Sr., widower of Billie J. Sakkab, filed the lawsuit against Wynn Las Vegas LLC and several unidentified companies on Dec. 5 in Clark County District Court.
