An unconscious man in a Pa. hospital for weeks couldn’t tell staff who he is, so the hospital asked for the public’s help in identifying its mystery patient.

UPDATE: Temple University Hospital announced Wednesday afternoon it has identified the patient, but did not release his name nor any additional details to the public.

As CBSPhilly.com reported, the unconscious man had been languishing in a critical care unit there since May 5.

So despite patient privacy laws, the hospital released photos of the man in hopes someone could identify him.

The patient is described as a white male, around 60 years of age, 5-foot-8, 185 pounds with gray hair and a beard.

He also has tattoos on his left chest, both arms, stomach and right and left thighs.

Virtually no information was released on the patient’s condition, other than the obvious fact that he has been unconscious for several weeks and is shown in the pictured tethered to various life-support medical equipment.
