The ED does initial assessment but the trauma team on call is aware of an incoming patient before they hit the door and assumes care almost immediately.

The whole thing is tragic but Rene may have been exceedingly lucky because of the city it happened in. Sometimes the outcome of an act determines how we view the intent.
like they say, it's a fine line between bravery and stupidity.
