There was an emergency landing when a pilot died in the bathroom of an airplane during a flight. This pilot had collapsed and passed away in the bathroom of this plane.

This man has been identified as Iván Andaur. He was 56 years old when he passed away. He had reportedly suffered a cardiac arrest.
This incident occurred on the LATAM airlines flight around 11 p.m. His two co-pilots had to make a quick decision and made an emergency landing.
They made an emergency landing at Tocumen International Airport in Panama City. There were 2 doctors and a nurse on board who attended to him first. According to the nurse, they didn't have the needed sufficient supplies to 'perform a good resuscitation'
A passenger had revealed that the airline told them they would be making an emergency landing because the pilot felt sick. This was after a copilot had asked if there was any doctor on board 40 mins after the plane had taken off.
After the plane landed, more medical personnel attended to the pilot but he passed away.
The airline booked all passengers on board into hotels in Panama City. They were able to resume the flight 2 days after which was on Tuesday.
