Modesto man tries to amputate own arm

Quote:

MODESTO, Calif. - Police say a man tried to cut off his own arm at a restaurant in Modesto, Calif., because he thought he had injected air into a vein while shooting cocaine and feared he would die unless he took drastic action.

Yea, I kinda laughed at this one.

He obviously wasn't to concerned about the air bubble, I mean geeze, he gave the stuff enough time to kick in before going completely mental!

I'm sure that Denny's would have given him a free straw... BYOMirror though...

Clarification: he was not shooting coke in the Dennys, but rushed in AFTER he had done so and started grabbing knives.

Butter-knives, steak-knives ... what kind of knives did he use? And -God help me- how far did he get?

I wish....The closest thing to that is the California Law they tried to pull to legalize medical marijuana or something..

I don't get the appeal of anarchy.

This drug user needs to be in rehab. He could have hurt someone else. :evil:

Wouldn't the guy just have cut himself badly and maybe bled to death?
