h/t Drudge

This is really weird. I mean, the story alone is weird, but I don't get how this guy, after chopping of his own junk and throwing it, continued running around throwing knives at police and then still resisting after being tasered when the cops tried to arrest him. This guy had to be on some kind of serious drugs or something, because I just don't know how he even remained on his feet, much less battled the cops.

The Chicago Sun Times has the story:

Fik, 33, cut off his own penis during a Northwest Side rampage Wednesday morning. When confronted by police, Fik hurled several knives and his severed organ at the officers, police said. Officers stunned him with a Taser and took him into custody.

Fik was bleeding when the officers arrived and may have already cut off his organ, Dolan said.

"At that point, this guy came running out, naked, with a handful of knives . . . and started throwing knives at the police officers that were 10, 20, 30 feet away," Dolan said.

Fik threw his penis during the confrontation, too, Dolan said. He then went back into the house and re-emerged with "another handful of knives," Dolan said.

Dolan sneaked to the side of the bungalow's front steps and stunned Fik with the Taser. Fik fought back when officers went to restrain him, Dolan said.

"As long as the penis is placed on ice and reattached within a few hours, the success is usually pretty good," Bales said.

Seriously, outside of drugs, what explanation is there for being able to take that much pain and still be fighting with police, going in and out of a house throwing knives? I don't even want to get in to what a strange reaction the whole thing was to apparent fighting with his girlfriend in Poland, or how he could even do that to himself in the first place.

Also, not a great day to be a cop. Obviously someone had to retrieve "the organ" and put it on ice to bring to the hospital. I've got a strong stomach, but I would have definitely puked.
