A 30 year old man was received dead at the emergency ward after having sustained injury by falling in a drain while riding a bicycle carrying a beer bottle under his trouser which got crushed. The broken pieces of glass pierced his right inguinal area injuring right femoral artery. He bled profusely and was immediately shifted to SCB MCH Cuttack for further management. But he succumbed enroute and was received dead. The dead body was sent to Central morgue for post mortem examination, which revealed an isolated femoral artery injury.
