The flight was about 15 minutes from landing when Fisher had the emergency, the website reported.
Flight attendants called out for assistance, and an EMT rushed to help. She was taken to a local hospital when the plane landed, and there was no word on her condition.
A spokesman for United Airlines confirmed that a passenger did have a heart attack to BuzzFeed News, but didn't identify the passenger.
“Medical personnel met United flight 935 from London to Los Angeles upon arrival today after the crew reported that a passenger was unresponsive,” he said. “Our thoughts are with our customer at this time and any requests for additional information should be directed to local authorities.”
She said Fisher was not breathing for “10 minutes or so.”
“Hope she's gonna be OK,” she wrote.
