Drunk man cuts off his own penis

Emergency services were called to a house in Oxford last month where a man had severed his own penis with a knife.

The unnamed man from Wantage in Oxfordshire dialed the emergency services after emasculating himself and asked for assistance as he believed he was bleeding to death. Paramedics arrived but called for police backup as the man was clearly intoxicated and had a knife in his possession.

Thames Valley Police spokesperson Claire Gourlay told the Oxford Mail:

“Police were called by the ambulance service to a property in Wantage, at 2.15am on June 18.

“A man had allegedly harmed himself with what was believed to be a knife.

“The police attended, and the man was taken by paramedics to the John Radcliffe Hospital. His injuries were not life-threatening.”

The man’s severed reproductive gland was found floating in the bathtub, it has not been confirmed whether surgeons were able to reattach the organ. The police are not investigating the incident as a crime and the man remains in hospital recovering.

Neighbors described the self mutilating loner as “a lovely man, very shy and very artistic”.

This is the second case of self castration in recent weeks.
