‘Divine intervention’: Maine man carrying own severed arm is saved

 

A man who stumbled along a street while carrying his own severed arm was saved by two public workers who saw him and happened to be trained in the use of tourniquets, authorities in Maine said.

 

“It had to be divine intervention because two of my best guys just happened to be there sanding sidewalks,” said Mary Ann Brenchick, director of Lewiston Public Works. “It couldn’t have been better guys for this kind of situation.”

 

Witnesses said the man’s arm was cut off Friday near the shoulder, apparently in a workplace accident, the Sun Journal reported.

 

The members of the public works crew applied a tourniquet while waiting for an ambulance to arrive, according to Lewiston Police Lt. Derek St. Laurent.

 

Investigators followed a trail of blood back to a business where several people said the man had been operating a band saw. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration was alerted.

OSHA: Lewiston man was not employee of market where his arm was severed

 

OSHA says a man whose arm was severed at a Lewiston market did not work there.

 

The agency told CBS13 it has ended its investigation into the incident because the man wasn't an employee at AK Market, giving them no jurisdiction to investigate what happened.

 

In January, 25-year-old Abdiaziz Hussein of Lewiston was saved by city employees who saw him walking down the street carrying his severed arm, which had been cut off near the shoulder, and applied a tourniquet.

 

According to the Sun Journal, police did not reveal the man's relationship to the market or what led up to the injury but did say it involved a meat-cutting band saw that was used to process meat in the rear of the store.

 

After speaking with numerous witnesses and reviewing hours of both store and neighboring footage, police say it appears the incident was self-inflicted.

Police: Man in relationship with sister admits to brutally killing her with baseball bat

 

Authorities in Texas say a man confessed to brutally beating his sister to death with a baseball bat.

 

Jose Manuel Guzman, 32, told investigators with the El Paso County Sheriff's Office that he “lost control” after his sister told him she was involved in a sexual relationship with an unknown man, according to the arrest affidavit.

 

Guzman explained to authorities he had been involved in a sexual relationship with his sister, Karla Mariela Marroquin Chavez de Ortiz. Guzman said he had reunited with his sister and had become romantically involved with her, which he knew was wrong.

 

Guzman claims he fell in love with the victim. Court documents described how Guzman said he killed Chavez de Ortiz.

 

Guzman said on Feb. 3, he used a baseball bat and an electric hand-held massager in the killing.

PETROPOLIS, BRAZIL -- Rio de Janeiro state's government has confirmed 105 deaths from floods and mudslides that swept away homes and cars in the city of Petropolis. But even as families prepared to bury their dead, it was unclear Thursday how many bodies remained trapped in the mud.

 

Rubens Bomtempo, mayor of the German-influenced city nestled in the mountains, didn't even offer an estimate for the number of people missing, with recovery efforts still ongoing.

 

"We don't yet know the full scale of this," Bomtempo said at a news conference Wednesday. "It was a hard day, a difficult day."

Teacher admits to feeding students cupcakes laced with her husband's sperm

 

A school teacher in Louisiana who reportedly has admitted to lacing cupcakes with her husband's sperm and feeding them to students now faces a sentence of 41 years in prison.

 

The Associated Press reports Cynthia Perkins and her now ex-husband Dennis Perkins were both arrested in October 2019 and charged with two counts of first-degree rape, 60 counts of producing porn involving a juvenile under the age of 13, and with a slew of other child sex crime charges.

 

Cynthia was reportedly a teacher in Livingston Parish while her husband, Dennis, was a Livingston Parish sheriff's deputy at the time of their arrest.

 

Per her plea agreement, Cynthia reportedly admits she assisted her husband in sexually assaulting a juvenile, helped her husband film a juvenile bathing, and also admitted to lacing cupcakes with her then-husband's sperm before feeding them to school children.

 

Cynthia will also testify against her former husband, as per the plea deal, according to Louisiana Assistant Attorney General Barry Milligan.

Circular saw used to cut man’s leg off, murder charges laid

 

A man has died and another has been charged with murder after an alleged horrific late-night “arrangement” involving a circular saw in northern Queensland.

 

Police will allege the two men, who were known to each other, drove together to Fitzgerald Park in Innisfail and sat under a tree at 3.48am on Saturday.

 

About 20 minutes later, the men’s alleged “arrangement” turned grisly.

 

Police say a 36-year-old man used a circular saw to cut off a 66-year-old Innisfail man’s leg below the knee.

 

The younger man helped the older man back to a car before he fled the scene on foot after allegedly using the older man’s own saw to carry out the botched amputation.

 

The older man was found by passers-by in the street and was pronounced dead when emergency services arrived a short time later.

Chinese security guard is held captive as a BLOOD SLAVE: Man was kidnapped in Cambodia after being lured by fake job ad and had his blood drained from him every month

 

A Chinese security guard was kidnapped and used as a 'blood slave' by a gang in Cambodia after he was lured to the country by a fake job ad. 

 

The 31-year-old man, who has been identified only by his surname Li, was held captive and had 27 ounces of blood drained from him every month for six months.

 

It is believed that the gang who kidnapped Li sold his blood to private buyers online.


A normal blood donation usually takes around 16 ounces - 11 ounces less than the amount drained from Li - which is around 8 per cent of the average blood volume of an adult.  

 

As a result of the excessive blood extraction, Li, who managed to escape the gang earlier this month, had multiple organ failures and his arms were covered with bruises from the needles. 

 

The victim told Beijing Youth Daily he had been trafficked last June after going to China's southwestern region of Guangxi in response to a job advert for work as a nightclub bouncer.

Woman says NY doctor secretly fathered her and then violated her as OB-GYN

 

Morgan Hellquist is suing Dr. Morris Wortman, a Rochester fertility specialist and her previous OB-GYN.
 

Morgan Hellquist was at the dinner table when she received the text alerting her that the DNA results were in and had been forwarded to her in an email. There was no emoji with the text — no smiley face, no frown — to forewarn her of what was to come.

 

She went to another room to read the email, hoping that her fears were unfounded, simply too aberrant to be real. She opened the email, and there was the confirmation she'd dreaded: According to genetic tests, the man who had been her obstetrician-gynecologist for nearly a decade was her biological father. It was as if she had been incestuously violated for years.

 

-----------

 

Between 1983 and 1985, Wortman treated Hellquist's mother. According to Hellquist, the family was told the donor was a University of Rochester medical student. In 1985, Morgan Hellquist was born.

 

Thereafter, Wortman was a heroic figure in the household. Hellquist's mother revered Wortman. She and her husband told Hellquist when she was 8 years old that she was donor-conceived. 

 

------------

 

In 2017, Hellquist learned, through the genetic tests, of two half-brothers who were also 50% Ashkenazi Jewish. She would eventually learn of six half-siblings, and informed the Center for Menstrual Disorders of her discoveries. There were also oddities; some of the half-brothers bore resemblances to Wortman.

 

Still, they too thought their biological father had been a medical student, and the time frame for conception seemed to make sense. The half-siblings had been born within two years of each other.

 

"We continued to believe this narrative of this being a medical student because we were all about the same age," Hellquist said. "It seemed to be really logical."

 

As well, the half-siblings in 2020 found a genetic link with a physician who had been a University of Rochester medical student. He was also Jewish. "We believed then that this was the family tree we were barking up," Hellquist said.

Human Organs Trafficked To Singapore For Fashion Accessories, Say Brazilian Police

 

A human hand and three placentas have been sent from a university in Brazil, destined for an unorthodox fashion designer in Singapore, in a case of suspected human organ trafficking, according to Brazilian Federal Police.  

 

The hand and placentas were plastinated, a common preservation method for museums and research, before being shipped from the Amazonas State University (UEA) in Manaus, Brazil. Police then carried out an anti-trafficking raid after receiving information about the possible trafficking of human remains, and a professor from the school’s anatomy lab has been suspended. If found guilty of international trafficking of human organs, he will face up to 8 years in prison. 

 

“According to the investigations, the accused send plastinated human organs to Singapore. Plastination is a modern technical process for preserving biological material, which basically consists of removing bodily fluids (water and fixing solutions) and fats, through chemical methods, substituting them for plastic resins like silicon, polyester and epoxy, resulting in dry, odourless and durable tissues,” said the Brazilian Federal Police in a statement.

Young bloke fighting for life after cutting off his own penis and popping it in drawer

 

Emergency services were rushed to a home in Wollongong, near Sydney in Australia, on Wednesday afternoon after receiving a report that a man had deliberately cut off his own penis.

 

When New South Wales Police officers arrived, they found a 25-year-old man bleeding profusely from the groin.

 

The man reportedly told them that he had amputated his own penis with a multitool before placing the severed organ in a drawer and then calling for help.

 

The officers rushed the injured man, and the detached body part, to Wollongong Hospital where he immediately underwent emergency surgery and is understood to be in a critical condition.

 

The officers who arrived first on the scene are believed to have been offered counselling to help them get over what they saw.

 

It is unclear why the man chose to mutilate himself. NSW Police does not comment on self-harm incidents as a matter of policy.

 

A similar case was discussed in a paper published earlier this month in the Journal of Medical Case Reports by doctors from Chiang Mai University in Thailand.

 

In that case, a 23-year-old Thai man, who was a regular cannabis user, smoked two bongs of cannabis, equivalent to approximately two grams’ worth.

 

A couple of hours later he began to experience an unwanted and very painful erection.

 

He also told doctors that the tip of the penis began to look “distorted”.

 

Hoping to relieve the painful swelling, he decided to “trim the penile skin several times” with a pair of scissors.

 

As that operation failed to stop the pain, he then cut off his penis entirely, leaving behind an inch-long stump.

Man, 49, who shoved AA battery down his penis and left it there for 24 HOURS was left unable to urinate properly after it scarred the inside of his urethra

 

An Iranian man was left unable to urinate and in need of skin graft surgery after getting an AA battery lodged in his penis.

 

The 49-year-old patient, who has not been named, went to hospital in Tehran in April 2021, where he told doctors the object had been stuck for 24 hours. 

 

Medics were able to prise the battery out without surgery and discharge the man on the same day — but he was forced to return months later in pain.


During his second hospital stint in September, he revealed he had been suffering a burning sensation when urinating and was unable to achieve a full stream of urine. 

 

Scans revealed 'severe and progressive' scarring to his urethra, partially blocking the tube that carries urine and semen through the penis. 

 

Doctors were unsure what exactly had caused the damage but it may have been due to toxic materials in the battery. 

 

They also did not reveal how the device came to be inside his penis, but they suggested a number of possible reasons including sexual pleasure, contraception or a drunken accident.

Box of human heads stolen from a truck in Denver

 

Human remains were stolen out of a medical truck used to transport body parts for medical research. 

 

In Denver’s Central Park neighborhood, it’s a family atmosphere. There are a lot of families and kids getting off the bus from school and people out walking the dogs. 

 

Isaac Fields takes his dog, Margot, to the dog park almost every day. He moved here about three years ago.

 

“Pretty shocking. I guess I don’t see too many strange things happening around here usually, but you know you never know,” Fields said. “Wow! I would have been so terrified.”

 

Near 23rd Avenue around 11 a.m. Thursday morning, Denver Police said someone broke into a box truck and took a dolly and a box of human remains.

 

Sources told KDVR/KWGN it was a blue and white cardboard box about 20 x 15 x18 inches with “Science Care” written on the sides. Inside the box? Human heads.

Human Leg Found in Bag in Brooklyn Just Blocks From Where Torso Was Found: Police

 

Police said that a body part belonging to a person was found in a bag in Brooklyn Monday afternoon.

 

The appendage, which police said appears to be a leg, was discovered in a bag on the sidewalk along Jamaica Avenue in Cypress Hills around 3:30 p.m.

 

The city medical examiner's office will determine what they can from the body part, and an investigation is ongoing.

 

It was not immediately clear if the leg had any known connection to the woman's torso found inside a garbage bag in a shopping cart on March 3.

Windsor Locks man pleads guilty in ‘Simsbury jogger’ murder case

 

A man charged with stabbing and killing a woman as she jogged on a Simsbury trail in 2014 pleaded guilty to murder and is to be sentenced to 35 years in prison, the prosecutor in the case said Wednesday.

 

To avoid a trial, Supervisory Assistant State’s Attorney Vicki Melchiorre said, Leverett agreed to a 35-year prison term and will have to serve a minimum of 25 years.

 

Melchiorre called the case “just bizarre and very scary.”

 

The case broke on Sept. 19, 2018, when Leverett, a registered sex offender working as an assistant manager at Fresh Market in Avon, went to the Simsbury police station and confessed, police have said. He then led investigators to a bloody glove hidden behind a wall on his grandparents’ Simsbury property, records show. Tests showed it contained Millan’s DNA.

 

Leverett told police he went to the trail that night looking for “human contact” after attending a sex offenders meeting in Hartford. When he spotted Millan, a 54-year-old executive at Mass Mutual Life Insurance Co., he said he became “mentally aroused,” which then turned to anxiety and anger when he realized, “I can’t have her” and “She was way out of my league.”

 

Leverett said he approached Millan around 8 p.m. in a darkened part of the trail and stabbed her in the chest, according to arrest records. Millan pushed Leverett away, forcing the knife out of her chest as Leverett clutched the weapon. Leverett said he heard Millan say, “Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God,” before she went quiet, records show.

 

Melchiorre said she had jogged on the same path where Millan was killed. She said she cannot process how Leverett changed in a moment from thinking Millan was an attractive lady he would like to meet to deciding to plunge a knife into her chest. Leverett was evaluated and found sane, she said.

Elderly Brooklyn dismemberment suspect shopped at 99 Cent store with victim’s leg in tow, NYPD says

 

The octogenerian suspect in a grisly Brooklyn murder shopped at a 99 Cent store with her victim’s dismembered leg tucked away in her electric wheelchair, police said Friday.

 

The leg of victim Susan Leyden – cut off from the knee down – was captured on surveillance video when her accused killer Harvey Marcelin stood up from the wheelchair while inside the store, Chief of Detectives James Essig said at a Friday press conference.

 

“She gets up out of her wheelchair there and the leg is right there on the seat,” Essig said.

 

The chief did not specify when Marcelin, who also went by Marcelin Harvey, went on the horrific shopping trip.

 

Marcelin, an 83-year-old transgender woman, was arrested March 4 after she was identified as the person who ditched Leyden’s headless, limbless torso in a shopping cart at Atlantic and Pennsylvania Aves. in East New York. The NYPD says Leyden’s head was found inside Marcelin’s home.

There seem to have been a lot of dismemberings lately:

 

Investigators identify human remains found in gator's mouth at Hungryland Preserve

 

The human remains found in an alligator's mouth in the Hungryland Preserve on Thursday have been identified.

 

The investigation began on Wednesday after Sheriff William Snyder said a biologist for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission located what appeared to be an arm inside of an alligator's mouth. FWC officers later located the arm and confirmed it was human remains.

 

A Martin County Fire Rescue dive team went into the canal for any additional remains as a sniper watched over the team, deputies said.

 

A second body part was found Thursday on the bank of a different canal about one mile from the original location.

 

More human body parts were discovered Friday morning in what appeared to be a shallow grave.

 

Detectives suspect that Mills was the victim of a homicide, as his remains present evidence of being dismembered with a sharp instrument.

A look at the frightening Texas giant red-headed centipede

 

Maybe you heard about the invasive species of spider, the size of a child's hand, that's expected to appear along much of the East Coast this spring.

 

Spider shmider, as we say in Central Texas.

 

he thing that leaves us with cold sweats is the Texas giant red-headed centipede.

 

It's a venomous crawler that can grow up to at least 8 inches (!) long.

 

sfWk5N2mjYkqkejeurokND.jpeg

 

The head and first two body segments are red, and the other body segments are typically black with traces of green. With its yellow legs, it looks like something radioactive.

 

Any of its 20-odd legs can deliver venom, excreting poison into fresh cuts with its feet.

 

The centipede snacks on lizards and can snatch flying insects out of the air — and its sharp, painful bites can lead to swelling, headaches and nausea for humans — partly because you're thinking, "I can't believe that thing just bit me."

7.3-magnitude earthquake hits coast off Japan's Fukushima prefecture

 

A tsunami advisory was issued by Japanese officials Wednesday following a 7.3-magnitude earthquake that hit off the coast of Fukushima prefecture, where a 2011 quake caused a disaster at a nuclear power plant.

 

The tsunami advisory was made for Fukushima and Miyagi prefectures in eastern Japan following the quake that had a preliminary epicenter depth of 60 kilometers (37 miles), according to the Japan Meteorological Agency.


The advisory warns of tsunami heights reaching up to 1 meter above normal tidal levels, with the initial waves reaching shore around midnight local time (11 a.m. ET).


Tremors could be felt in Miyagi and the capital Tokyo, with footage showing shaking lights and buildings. The quake knocked out power to more than 2 million households in Tokyo and nearby prefectures, Tokyo Electric Power said on its website.
