I need to get into my house!

A 41 year old man was brought in by ambulance to the Emergency Department. While heavily intoxicated at home he had lashed out or flailed his arm and somehow penetrated his forearm on a long blunt door handle, which was still lodged in his upper limb (the ambos removed the handle from the door rather than risk taking it out).

Eventually the handle was removed, the wound cleaned and sutured and he was discharged. But before leaving he slurred ‘Give that back I need to get into me house’.
