CEBU CITY – A hit-and-run victim lives again after two hours of being clinically dead.
Prokopio Manggubat Jr., single, age 38, Filipino, Roman Catholic, was run over yesterday at 9:30PM by a raging Ceres Liner bus at the intersection of the M. Bacalso highway. The accident crushed the man and sent him flying some distance straight into a gutter. However, the bus vanished into thin air after the incident and on-lookers did not see the plate numbers of the vehicle. They were, however, completely sure that it was a Ceres Liner.
Paramedics came to the scene, placed the man on a gurney, and announced him dead on the spot inside the ambulance. However, after a few hours of being deceased, the man’s heart began to palpitate again and he gradually lived, almost unscathed. Unfortunately, he was sent directly to a mental institution after he ran out of the Cebu City Medical Center (CCMC) yelling something about the Afterlife, causing a crowd of people to instigate a riot on the streets demanding their rights to know the ultimate truth and declaring the man a prophet of God Almighty, creator of Heaven and Hell.
PHG rushed to the Vicente Sotto Mental Hospital and found the man in ward number 13 dancing and shouting these words, in total joviality and eternal repetition: “The Afterlife – it’s real. It’s beautiful. It’s great. Hurry up, jump off the nearest cliff now or blow your brains out immediately!”
On a possibly related note, the suicide death toll in Cebu City is reportedly rising. – CDL
