MEXICO CITY - A construction worker was hospitalized on Tuesday after getting drunk and paying two boys to castrate him, according to officials at the Aguascalientes state attorney general's office.
The spokesman for the agency in the central Mexican state, Oscar Arredondo, said in a telephone interview that 50-year-old Ernesto Rodriguez Hernandez was drunk at building site in Aguascalientes city on Sunday when he met two 11-year-old boys who had gone there to play.
He told them that he wanted to be "castrated to live more calmly" and because he had no wife, Arredondo said, then offered the boys money.
Arredondo said Rodriguez gave the boys 200 pesos (US$20) after they cut off one testicle with a razor he gave them.
The boys' parents notified police after the children told them where the money had come from. Rodriguez was taken to a hospital and the two boys were placed under court jurisdiction while officials investigate the case.
