So they did a wallet biopsy in the ambulance and found out he had no money so they dropped him of at the next corner

No well they just did all they could but he needed surgery to get the nails out and then they found out he had no money and out of the hospital he goes.

I think I'd like some evidence as to the veracity of this story.

No link needed, but a name, city, date, time - anything?
