Think about this one ~ guy is injured by a tiger ~ bleeding all over the place ~ and someone checks his blood/alcohol level on the way to the hospital? That's called putting your priorities in place eh.

No where in the article does it state that “they” (I presume you mean the paramedics) tested blood in the ambulance. I’m not even sure that’s possible. It would however be SOP for the ER to take blood samples in order to type and cross match for giving them blood – which they probably needed given they were bleeding. And the ER docs would also need to know if they had alcohol and or drugs in their systems as that could impact the course of treatment.

Then, by the time he gets to the hospital for more professional treatment they've taken his cellphone, probably his wallet, found his keys ~ and there he is "naked to the world", laying on his back, and the zookeepers are making up stories about him.

My you paint a vivid picture. Are you perchance a personal injury lawyer? Related to John Edwards?

No, just a writer of federal regulations ~ but to do that job well you have to think of what the ambulance chasers are going to do with your words.

I'm thinking if the claims concerning who said what are true, given all the other factoids we know about, you don't want to end up in an ambulance ride in San Fran!
