QUEENS, NY — The Queens assistant principal stricken with swine flu succumbed to the deadly virus today, the first person to die in the city from the disease, hospital officials said.

“We were treating him very aggressively,” said Flushing Hospital spokesman Ole Pedersen. “Unfortunately, he did expire at 6:17 p.m. this evening.”

The sick man, Mitchell Wiener, 55, an assistant principal at IS 238 in Jamaica Estates, first fell ill more than a week ago, but didn't seek help at the hospital until his symptoms became severe early Wednesday morning.

Since that time, he's been in a medically induced coma, on a ventilator.
