One tough hombre

We've all been there haven't we? You leave your home, office or other place where you've been and you get obsessed by the thought that you've left something behind but you just can't put your finger on what. It happens with wallets, hand bags, car keys, briefcases, children, pets and all sort of other paraphernalia. However it rarely happens with fingers. A forty two year old Australian man was reunited with his finger when a barman in Sydney found the missing digit in a pool of blood after receiving a call from the hospital treating the unnamed man. It is not known if surgeons have been able to reattach the finger. The Sydney constabulary taking nothing for granted, like the great detective Inspector Clouseau, believe the man may have been in a fight.
