Man with scissors lodged in his brain walked quietly into the hospital and said "I have a small problem""

A man with a pair of scissors sticking out of his head stunned hospital staff when he walked into A&E and politely asked staff if they could help him.

 

Blood-soaked Jonas Acevedo Monroy, 32, was nicknamed 'The Gentleman' because of his good manners.

Mr. Monroy had been in his local bar in the city of Chihuahua in north-western Mexico, when a jealous rival came over and began to hassle him.

 

His friend Nandor Altamirano Carvajal, 30, said: 'Jonas was as always full of high spirits and was being charming with everyone in the bar when one of the locals took umbrage. 

He was said to have walked up to Jonas and tried to make him upset by being abusive and aggressive.  Jonas kept his cool and even offered to buy him a drink.  But the guy pulled out a pair of scissors and stabbed Jonas on the head and then fled the scene.

Jonas was quickly rushed to the hospital.  When he arrived he was said to have walked down to the reception, shook the hands of the receptionist and quietly told the staff. ‘’ I have a small problem’’. 

At first the hospital staff thought he was playing pranks with the scissors sticking out from his head, but later found out the seriousness of the situation when Jonas collapsed. 

The hospital said he was very lucky to be alive because he was stabbed in the upper left side of his skull and the scissors had penetrated his parietal brain lobe.  This is the part of the brain responsible for sensation, perception, processing sensory information into  visual images and spatial co-ordination.
