A man between the ages of thirty and forty cut off his own penis (it hurts just to type those words!) in Zizzi's restaurant on the Strand in London on Sunday evening. Police had to use CS gas to restrain him before taking him to a South London hospital where he is in stable condition. Doctors were, however, unable to reattach his member. A spokeswoman for the restaurant relates the events (those with tender sensibilities may wish to look away now):
"At around 9pm on Sunday, a man walked into the Zizzi restaurant on The Strand, down the stairs to the basement restaurant area and tried to enter a kitchen.
"Members of staff stopped him, at which he ran into a second kitchen area.
"The man then picked up a kitchen knife and slashed himself across the wrist and groin areas before running back into the restaurant, where he continued to stab himself.
"This happened in a matter of seconds and was obviously extremely frightening and distressing for the many customers and staff in the restaurant at the time."
"Apart from the man, we understand that no-one else suffered any physical injuries."
I think some of the witnesses to events might have to take a trip or two to the shrink I reckon.
