From the New York Daily News:
A coroner declared a 78-year-old Mississippi man dead at his home, but later, and in a body bag, he woke up.
Both a hospice nurse and a family member called Holmes County Coroner Dexter Howard to say Walter Williams of Lexington had passed on Wednesday night. By his bedside, the family watched Howard check for a pulse on the neck and wrist, but he lacked signs of life, Howard told the Daily News.
As the mortician prepared the body for embalming at the funeral home only a few hours later, the coroner witnessed what he described as a miracle — a leg started moving from inside the zipped bag.
“Something wasn’t right,” Howard said. “We looked at each other, thinking he might still be alive.”
