Angry Man Crashes Truck into A&E Over Long Wait Times

A frustrated man drove his pickup truck into the emergency room lobby of a hospital after reportedly losing patience over what he claimed was an excessively long wait.

The incident occurred in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and left onlookers stunned as Rubén Darío Mangoni, a 39-year-old man, plowed his Volkswagen Amarok into the entrance of the Hospital Municipal Ciudad de Boulogne.

Darío had reportedly gone to the hospital seeking help after allegedly consuming a dangerous amount of drugs.

CCTV footage captured the shocking moment when he, apparently fed up with the wait, exited the building, returned to his vehicle parked outside, and then drove it directly into the hospital’s entrance.

Inside, three people seated in the waiting room narrowly escaped injury as the truck barreled through the doors and came to a halt near the reception area.

The footage also shows two police officers quickly confronting Darío as he stepped out of the vehicle.

According to witnesses, he emerged holding a bottle of water, shouting incoherently that he was “dying” after taking an excessive quantity of drugs.

Despite his dramatic outburst, hospital staff reported that Darío was unharmed in the crash.

Medical personnel promptly attended to him, noting that he was in a stable condition but displayed severe psychomotor agitation, requiring sedation.

The incident, which occurred at 6:16 a.m. on Monday, November 25, caused significant damage to the hospital’s property.

A hospital representative later confirmed that no patients or staff were injured in the collision.

Meanwhile, authorities arrested Darío, who is now facing charges of causing aggravated damage to public property.

Police revealed that the suspect is a known member of Boca Juniors’ notorious hooligan fanbase and has a criminal history, including convictions for armed robbery, fraud, and theft.

As investigations continue, Darío’s actions have raised questions about the impact of his drug use and previous criminal behavior on the safety of public spaces.
