Hey, I Thought You Were Dead!

The patient who received “last rites” from the priest who then got a traffic ticket calls on authorities to show some mercy:

Nelly Munoz, 65, is so grateful to the Rev. Cletus Forson of St. Andrew the Apostle for rushing to her bedside at Maimonides Medical Center following emergency intestinal surgery she wants to find a way to pay for the ticket.

“The operation was very bad, but when he came to visit me it made me feel very good,” said Munoz, who is originally from Colombia and worked in a laundry before becoming ill last month.

“I’m really upset. When I heard what happened, I wanted to pay the ticket if I could,” added Munoz, who has no source of income and is recovering at a friend’s house in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. “I feel very grateful that he came to give me prayers.”

Yesterday, The News found four private cars parked illegally in the same zone without tickets — including vehicles apparently belonging to a doctor, two EMS workers and a cop.
