This is a story I submitted to DarwinAwards.com
I am an EMT in Jackson and ran this call. The gentleman in this article lived at this address, which belonged to his aunt. On numerous occasions in the past, when he got drunk, his aunt would kick him out for the night until he sobered up. This happened on the night in question.
At around 2am this morning, the gentleman apparently thought he was sober enough to come home. He found the door locked, so instead of knocking on the door, he punched the window NEXT to the door, at which time he slashed his arm and severed an artery. Instead of banging on the door next to the window and yelling for help, he went to the back of the house and tried the back door which was locked as well. He came back around the house and attempted to jump through the window, at which time he impaled himself on a piece of glass in the window, where he died. He was found with his back half hanging on the outside, and top half hanging on the inside.

Yuck, it is sad.... my hats off to all EMT's surely don't get paid enough..
OK, I'm voting on that.
How do you break that to the aunt? That's gotta be the toughest part.
