, spanning from the shoulder to the deltoid muscle, where the needle is inserted.

At first, he believed that the man had suffered an amputation and had presented him with the wrong arm, so in order not to put him in an uncomfortable situation, he asked for the other, explained the health worker, Filippa Bau, to Corriere.

But seeing that he was showing her a silicone arm "exactly like the other one", the nurse realized that the man was trying to trick her into giving him the drug in a fake arm.

using a silicone prosthesis into which he expected me to unknowingly inject the drug into him," he explained.
