VENTURA -- A drunk, nude man covered in his own blood was tasered and arrested by police as he tried to flee a hospital armed with scissors, authorities said.
Daniel Gilberg, 42, of Lancaster, was apparently being treated at the emergency room of Ventura County Medical Center for a head injury he suffered in a fall.
He became impatient and yanked out IVs and a catheter, then threatened two nurses with scissors, according to police.
Gilberg was subdued by two officers and booked for assault with a deadly weapon after being treated at the hospital.
