Russian man flees hospital immediately after surgery, tries to buy beer wearing only his bed sheets

In a city located in Khakassia, about 2,700 miles east of Moscow, a hospital patient fled his room after an operation, in order to buy beer at a nearby convenience store. He arrived dressed only in his bed sheets, and his body showed the wounds from his recent surgery. He was also still dragging the various tubes and bandages attached to his body at the hospital. 

According to a local television station, the man tried to buy beer, but the store refused him service and instead notified security guards, who returned the patient to the hospital. 

The incident took place on the night of February 13, when the recorded temperature in the area was -16º Celsius (3º Fahrenheit).
