Fremont Man Cuts Off His Own Penis With X-Acto Knife

Officers located the severed penis and doctors hope to reattach it.

FREMONT — A 20-year-old man cut off his penis using an X-Acto knife and was rushed to the hospital early Wednesday morning, a police detective said.

Officers responded to a home in the 4300 block of Mowry Avenue at about 2 a.m. after the man's brother contacted police about the self-inflicted wound, Detective Bill Veteran said.

Police do not believe the man was under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

The man was taken, along with his recovered severed organ, to a hospital so that doctors could attempt to reattach it and so that the man could be psychologically evaluated, Veteran said.

Wow! That one must have really "STUMPED" the police. That poor guy "FELL SHORT" of being mentally healthy and must have a "SEVERED" reality. Hopefully police will "CUT" to the chase and get some answers.

And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell. Matthew 5:30

I knew the divinely delusional must have a take on this cutting edge yet short story ! As an X-Acto knife is normally used on small projects,so it's a miracle they found the part he cut off at all ! Then again he may have spent considerable time felling it like a redwood tree. ! We'll probably never know as this story fails to get to the root of the subject,the subjects root ! Make a point of letting us know if they have reattached it,if they have to head off any infections,if anything pops up or he gets into a tight spot !

@James N. Perhaps they can use the remaining erectile tissue from the dangling participle to construct his new perky nipples and labia.

Simply too wierd.

All kidding aside, this guy probably has some serious mental problems. I've heard of people who wanted to cut off an arm or a leg. He needs to be evaluated before attempting to re-attach. It will not kill him to be without it, simply make him a eunuch, and perhaps that is his choice.

Do you know how to make a eunuch ? Eunuch up on them !
