Is it possible to burst a vein during a BBL?

nicolefarah
I recently read a story about a girl who had a BBL done in the Dominican Republic. apparently the Dr. injected fat into a vein in her butt an she had multiple heart attacks, eventually went into cardiac arrest and died. Is this possible or is this story false?
