BOSTON (AP) — A juror hearing the medical malpractice case brought by Notre Dame football coach Charlie Weis collapsed during testimony Tuesday, and several doctors in the courtroom — including the two defendants — rushed to his aid.

The juror, an unidentified older man, began moaning as he listened to Dr. David Brooks, who was testifying in defense of Massachusetts General Hospital surgeons Charles Ferguson and Richard Hodin. Weis claims they botched his care after gastric bypass surgery in June 2002.

The judge ordered all the other jurors out of the room after the man collapsed and a defense attorney called 911. Hodin and Ferguson were trying to help the ailing juror when a court officer cleared spectators from the courtroom.

Weis accuses Ferguson and Hodin of acting negligently by failing to recognize life-threatening internal bleeding and infection after his surgery.

It was not immediately clear whether testimony would resume Tuesday.

The trial, which featured testimony from Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, was entering its second week. Judge Charles Spurlock had told jurors to expect to begin deliberations as early as Wednesday.
