Man puts cellphone charger up his penis, stuck in bladder, removed by surgeons.

(CNN)An Indian man who went to hospital with abdominal pain had inserted a mobile phone charger cable into his penis, a doctor who treated him told CNN on Monday.

The man visited a hospital in northeastern India last month, claiming he had ingested some earphones, said Dr. Walliul Islam, a general surgeon at the hospital.

But when the cord didn't appear despite the patient being prescribed laxatives, doctors resorted to surgery.

"He came to us after five days, (and) despite passing stool several times the cable did not come out. We then conducted an endoscopy but still couldn't find anything. As the patient complained of severe pain, we decided to perform surgery and found that there was nothing in his intestine," Islam told CNN.

It was at that point that an x-ray revealed the man to have a two-foot-long charging cable in his bladder -- inserted via his urethra, the tube that leads from the penis to the bladder.

The patient has been discharged and is fine, according to Islam.

"I have read that people used to get sexual gratification by inserting instruments through the penis. This is one such case, and the psychiatrist can help him beyond this point," Islam added.

Man loses hand to homemade bomb, wanted to target 'hot cheerleaders'

ABINGDON, Va. (AP) — A southwest Virginia man who blew off his hand in an apparent explosives accident has been charged in federal court after authorities say they found evidence he was making a bomb and wanted to target “hot cheerleaders” because of his sexual frustrations.

An FBI affidavit filed Friday in federal court in Abingdon says 23-year-old Cole Carini of Richlands showed up at a hospital Wednesday with one hand blown off, fingers blown off his second and other shrapnel wounds.

He told authorities he’d been in a lawnmower accident. But authorities searched his property, and found explosives materials, rusty nails, pipes and pieces of flesh. They also found parts of a scorched letter that referenced tension “as he now approached the stage of hot cheerleaders” and “I will not be afraid of the consequences no matter what I will be heroic I will make a statement like Elliott Rodgers.”

Elliott Rodger killed himself in 2014 after killing six others, including two women outside a sorority house near Santa Barbara, Caifornia, leaving behind a manifesto that has been a rallying point for the online “incel” community. Incels, a shorthand phrase for “involuntarily celibate,” justify violence against women as revenge for men who are rejected as sexual partners.

QB Brees admits he doesn' trust blacks since a Falcons linebacker stole a football out of his hands.

NEW ORLEANS—In response to controversy over his previous statement that downplayed police brutality and focused on standing for the national anthem, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees admitted Thursday that he hasn’t trusted black people ever since a Falcons linebacker stole a football straight out of his hands.

“I understand that people might be angry with me, but I have to speak from my own experience, which is that in 2009, a large black man came out of nowhere, shoved me, and stripped my football directly out of my hands,” said Brees, adding that the man who took his football was accompanied by “at least four or five other large black men” who were all wearing red and black, which he took to be gang colors.

“Can you really blame me if I view black men suspiciously since that terrible day? I worked hard all my life to get that ball, and that large black linebacker—or maybe he was even a defensive end—ripped it out of my hands and just ran away. Meanwhile, I got shoved to the ground and not only did no one intervene, but the other black men around him started cheering. Where the heck was law enforcement? I could’ve been killed. It was just clear they have no respect for me, the grandson of World War II veterans. Honestly, since then I’ve been afraid to even leave the pocket.”

Brees added that if the country was going to have a conversation about police brutality, it also needed to address the anti-white organizations that paid large black men huge sums of money to attack innocent quarterbacks like himself.

Convict Kerik says Soros is behind it all.

“Oh, for these guys? Yeah, in fact, some of the people that's paying for the bail are Joe Biden's staff. I read an article yesterday in Reuters, where Joe Biden's staff is going to pay the bail for some of the people that got locked up. Really? These are radical, left-leaning domestic terrorists. Joe Biden's going to pay for the bail? Come on. I don't know what's going on, and who's behind it. I have an idea — George Soros, for one.”

Police: Man broke into bank to heat up Hot Pockets in microwave.

(WHDH) — A man was arrested early Wednesday morning after police say he broke through the window of a bank because he wanted to heat up his Hot Pockets in a breakroom microwave.

Officers responding to a burglary alarm at a Wells Fargo in San Diego around 3:30 a.m. encountered a man who claimed to be homeless and hungry, KNSD-TV reported.

“Was it worth it? Yeah, it was worth it,” the man told photographers as officers handcuffed him, according to the news outlet. “A Hot Pocket? Hell, yeah.”

Police say they man shattered a window near the drive-thru ATM to gain access to the bank. Officers, with the help of a K9 team, quickly swept the bank and took the man into custody.

The man, whose name was not released, is facing a charge of breaking and entering.

There were no reported injuries.
