‘Dead’ man awakes in mortuary

Imagine lying on the road drunk one minute and then waking sober a few hours later in the mortuary!
Sounds strange? It’s true and it happened recently in Guyana.
Several days ago, a man thought to be dead got a rude awakening when he found himself lying on a cold table in the Mabaruma Hospital mortuary.
He was said to have been picked up late Friday afternoon at the head of the Kumaka Stretch in Region One.
Those who picked him up surely thought that he was dead and subsequently took him to the mortuary. It turned out that the suspected dead was in a drunken sleep, and had decided to take a nap at the road corner.
Hospital workers got the shock of their lives when they went to work only to discover that the body that they had placed there the night before had vanished.
They later learnt that when the man awoke on the cold iron table the following day, sober and realizing where he was, the unsuspecting fellow shot out of the mortuary and has not been seen since.
