In August of this year, a man who allegedly lunged at Baltimore City, MD, police officers with a knife was shot and killed. Paramedics responded to the scene, examined the patient and declared him dead. However, he began moving on the ground some 30 minutes after he had been pronounced dead by paramedics. Those same paramedics were called back to the scene and determined he was still alive.
Is it a mistake by the medics? Is it a fluke? Divine intervention? Who knows!
