Man Cuts Off Own Penis to Cure Sex Addiction

Fri Aug 15,10:33 AM ET Add Oddly Enough - Reuters to My Yahoo!

BERLIN (Reuters) - A German cut off his own penis with a kitchen knife to cure his addiction to sex, police in the southern town of Tiengen said on Friday.

"The man called a friend around eight o'clock to say he'd done something stupid," police said in a statement. He had been drinking vodka to pluck up courage for the amateur surgery.

Police arrived to discover the blood-soaked man, 41, in his apartment and his organ under the kitchen table. Emergency services rushed the man and his penis to a nearby hospital.

Police said the man did not want his penis to be reattached but were unable to say if doctors had complied with his wishes.
