A 61-year-old man who suffered critical injuries after being pulled into an MRI machine while wearing a metal chain has died, police said Friday.
The incident occurred Wednesday afternoon at a medical building in Westbury, New York, according to the Nassau County Police Department.
Officers responded to Nassau Open MRI following a 911 call and were informed that the man “entered an unauthorized Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) room while the scan was in progress,” the police department said in a statement.
This sentence produces questions. Was the MRI room really unauthorized? Or did the man enter without authorization?
I read elsewhere that he entered without authorization, the headline is rubbish.
That’s the thing that makes sense.
