A 61-year-old man is in critical condition after he was sucked into an MRI machine on Long Island while wearing a large metal necklace, cops said. The freak incident occurred Wednesday afternoon when the man — who has not been identified by police — walked into the exam room at Nassau Open MRI sporting the chunky chain while a scan was already underway, according to Nassau County Police. Authorities said the man, who was not authorized to enter the Westbury imaging room, suffered a medical episode after he was forcefully pulled into the machine.
