“It was delivered very quickly [до больницы]. In fact, it took 10-12 minutes, and a team was already waiting for him,” said the doctor.

During his arrest, the man was wounded in the leg by a Russian Guard officer who was on duty at the event.
The governor himself came to his senses the next morning after the incident and recorded a video message from the intensive care ward. He thanked the doctors who saved him and those who were worried about his condition. Doctors assess Chibis' condition as serious.
Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov, commenting on what happened, said that the relevant services should draw conclusions about the need to strengthen the security of officials.
