An aspiring missionary doctor, who was voted by medical school
classmates as the epitome of a good physician, was killed Saturday at
Christus St. Joseph Hospital when an elevator malfunctioned,
decapitating him, authorities said.

Hitoshi Nikaidoh, 35, of Dallas, a surgical resident at the hospital at
1919 La Branch, was stepping onto a second-floor elevator in the main
building around 9:30 a.m. when the doors closed, pinning his shoulders,
said Harold Jordan, an investigator with the Harris County Medical
Examiner's Office. The elevator car then moved upward, severing the
doctor's head, Jordan said.

Oooo nasty!

Maybe he belonged to the wrong church?
