A patient from a psychiatric hospital in Masvingo, Zimbabwe, escaped from the clinic, fell into the mouth of a crocodile while crossing the Tugwi River, and died. About it informs Zimbabwe News.
Two hospital patients escaped on January 22, police said. The clinic staff discovered the loss about ten minutes later during the delivery of medicines to the wards and immediately called the police.
Half an hour after the escape, one of the locals received information that he had seen a man in a hospital gown who was trying to cross the crocodile-infested river. He added that the predator dragged the man under water. The police went to the indicated place, found the runaway’s clothes in the water and initiated a search for the remains.
