LUFKIN, Texas - Police in East Texas have arrested a woman after she called them to complain about the quality of the marijuana she had purchased from a dealer.

Lufkin police Sgt. David Casper said Monday that an officer went to the home of 37-year-old Evelyn Hamilton to hear her complaint that the dealer refused to return her money after she objected that the drug was substandard.

Casper says she pulled the small amount of marijuana from her bra when the officer asked if she still had it.

She was arrested Friday on a charge of possession of drug paraphernalia.

Hamilton said Monday that she spent $40 on "seeds and residue." She says she called police when she got no satisfaction from the dealer's family.

Not an extreme Darwin case but all good chain snatchers know that you grab a chain from someone on a moto so the victim gets injured instead of the perp.

 

A male employee of a Gay Bar, who blamed poor customer numbers at his venue, was detained by a local journalist on Thursday Morning on Jomtien Beach Road after he allegedly snatched a gold necklace from a woman who was sitting on a Baht Bus which had just stopped to receive more customers.

The incident occurred just before 11am, in front of the Palm Beach Hotel. Khun Sassitorn aged 20 was travelling on the Baht Bus with her foreign boyfriend and as the vehicle came to a halt to receive more customers, a man later identified as Khun Watcharapong aged 20, drove up beside the Baht Bus on his motorbike, leant over and snatched a gold necklace from around the neck of the female victim.

As he attempted to snatch the necklace he lost control of his bike and both the vehicle and the suspect fell onto the road. A local News Reporter, Khun Anan saw the incident occur and managed to detain the suspect until Police arrived to formally arrest him.

At the Police Station, the suspect claimed he worked for a Gay Bar in Pattaya and due to lack of foreign customers he was forced to enter a life of crime so he could pay his rent and have some money for food.  

Police charged the suspect with aggravated theft and the gold necklace was returned to its rightful owner.

Japanese Man Accidentally Burns Down His House While Live Streaming

 

The scenes feature a man reportedly called 'Ushiro' who lives in Shikoku, Japan.

It is not believed that the streamer or anyone else was harmed in the footage, with one poster describing the incident in several replies as 'minor'.

Another YouTube poster ChaoticApocalypse said: "It's his stream-chat, a lot of streamers have a text-to-speech thing set up to read out donation messages and stuff, so his viewers were sending him messages.

When the fire first starts the voice reads out a message saying "Ushiro! Ushiro!" (Behind! Behind!), so one of his viewers was trying to warn him of the burning bag behind him.

 

Later on the messages are stuff like "How did this even happen?" and "Why aren't you calling 119?"

We have a Darwin nominee from Bangkok.

A bored man stuck at home during the pandemic was rushed to hospital after getting a padlock stuck around his penis in a bizarre sex act gone wrong.

The bachelor, 38, clamped the metal device around the base of his manhood for a thrill around two weeks ago but he lost the key and his limb started to swell.

He tried unsuccessfully to remove the small lock so left it on his penis for more than 14 days until it became infected and the pain was unbearable.

The embarrassed man’s mother – who tried to help him – called the emergency services and firemen went to his home in Bangkok, Thailand, on the evening of July 16.

She told medics that her son did not have a girlfriend and was “bored” because he had been staying at home during the Covid-19 pandemic.

“My son is a private person and he doesn’t have a girlfriend. He has been staying at home a lot during the pandemic because he is worried about going out,” she said.

“He told me he did this because he was bored and he likes putting his ‘thing’ through small holes. I was angry at him for embarrassing me like this and I’ve told him not to do it again.”

Rescue officer Thongchai Donson said they received the emergency call but the injury was “worse than they expected” and had to rush the man, who they would not name, to the nearest hospital.

Medics spent more than 30 minutes using an electric cutter to slice through the metal lock. They slid a thin sheet of metal between the bar and the man’s skin to prevent it from being cut and squirted water onto his body for lubrication.

Once it was released, they administered antibiotic cream and gave the man penicillin tablets.

Despite his penis now being released, medics said there could be lasting damage because of the amount of time the padlock was stuck.

His penis has also been disfigured by the ordeal.

“We received the emergency call and did not know the full details, so we were surprised when we arrived. It was worse than we thought. If the padlock had stayed on for any longer, the infection could have been so bad that his penis would have started to rot and get gangrene,” Mr Donson said.

“In the hospital he was in pain and screaming so loudly because it was so swollen. Removing the metal was very difficult.

“We can’t give the man’s name but we want to make the news public to prevent other people from doing this kind of thing. It can be very dangerous and damage the body.”.

A man had died after using strong glue ‘to seal off his penis’ in a drug-fuelled romp with his girlfriend because they didn’t have a condom.

Salman Mirza, 25, reportedly applied epoxy adhesive to his manhood as a substitute for protection to stop his fiancee from getting pregnant before having sex at a hotel in Gujarat, India.

The couple – both reportedly addicted to drugs – checked into the hotel in the Juhapura neighbourhood of Ahmedabad on June 22 before Mr Mirza was found outside unconscious the following day, police say.

After taking drugs, they decided to use strong glue to “seal off” his private parts during intercourse to avoid pregnancy, according to an unnamed senior Ahmedabad city police officer – who said the pair also mixed whitener with the epoxy to inhale it for a “kick”.

“Several witnesses said that Mirza, along with his former fiancee, both of whom were addicted to drugs, had gone to a hotel in Juhapura,” the officer said, reports the Times of India.

“Since they did not have any protection, they decided to apply the adhesive on his private parts to ensure that she does not get pregnant.

“They were carrying the adhesive as they occasionally used it with whitener to inhale the mixture for a kick.”

The next day, Mr Mirza was found unconscious in shrubs near an apartment complex by a friend, Firoz Shaik, who took him home.

But his condition deteriorated and he was rushed to Sola Civil Hospital, where he died from multiple organ failure – reportedly caused by the adhesive.

The senior officer said: “Unfortunately, the adhesive damaged Salman’s organs, and he died due to multiple organ failure.

Mr Mirza’s relatives reportedly called for an inquiry into his death, as they believe he may have taken a drug that affected his health, with the glue just adding complications.

Deputy Police Commissioner Premsukh Delu told local news outlets: “The viscera samples of the deceased have been sent for forensic examination.

Thai man, 23, 'completely amputates' his own penis with SCISSORS to get rid of painful erection during cannabis-fuelled psychotic episode
 

Man suffered a painful erection after using a bong to get high on 2g of cannabis

Shockingly, he "trimmed" his penis with scissors, leaving him with a 2cm stump
Thai medics said the man's penis was too 'dirty and fragile' to be reconstructed

Psychosis is one of the potential mental health side effects from using cannabis
A Thai man cut off his penis with a pair of scissors during a frightening cannabis-induced psychotic episode.

The life-changing injury occurred after the unidentified 23-year-old smoked 2g of marijuana – the equivalent of six joints – in two bong rips. 

Prior to his self-amputation, the man had quit using cannabis use for three months after being a frequent user for two years. 

Two hours after smoking the drug for the first time in months, he began to have a painful erection unrelated to any sexual stimulation, which can be a side-effect of smoking cannabis.  

During his hallucination, the man grew paranoid that the head of his penis looked 'distorted' while examining himself to identify the source of the pain. 

In an attempt to eradicate the problem, the man decided to use a pair of scissors to 'trim' the skin of his penis before amputating it completely, leaving a 2cm stump and a 5cm laceration in his scrotum.   

Incredibly, the man then waited two hours before seeking attention from medics at a hospital in the city of Chiang Mai, after the bleeding failed to stop. 

Doctors briefly considered reattaching the man's penis, but it was found to be too fragile and contaminated with ants.

And the psychosis was so intense he experienced visual and auditory hallucinations for about two weeks during his recovery. 

The harrowing tale was revealed in a medical case report by the doctors who treated him.  

It comes just weeks after Thailand effectively decriminalised cannabis.  

The 23-year-old-man suffered psychosis after smoking 2g of cannabis from a bong. After experiencing a painful erection the man started 'trimming' the skin of his penis with a pair of scissors eventually amputating it entirely and leaving a 2cm stump
 

What is cannabis-induced psychosis?
Psychosis is a mental health condition where people lose some contact with reality. 

This might involve seeing or hearing things that other people can't and believing things that are not untrue.

Cannabis is one of the drugs that can induce such a state, others include speed, meth, cocaine, LSD and ecstasy. 

People experiencing psychosis are at higher risk of self-harm and/or suicide.

While there isn't an exact figure on the risk of developing a psychotic illness from using cannabis certain factors are known ton increase the risk.

These include:  

Starting to use cannabis at a young age
Smoking stronger types, such as skunk
Smoking  regularly, and for a long period of time 
Those who have a family  history of schizophrenia 

Detailing the case in the Journal of Medical Case Reports, Dr Theerapon Tangsuwanaruk said medics briefly considered reattaching the severed penis.

However, he said the man's penis was too severely damaged and a possible infection risk for this to go ahead.  

'The distal penis was deemed too dirty and fragile for reconstruction,' he said. 

'The amputated distal part of the penis was contaminated with ants and had fragile dorsal veins.' 

World first trial of cannabis-based drug to treat aggressive brain cancer gets the go ahead at 15 NHS hospitals

Marijuana use could make prescription drugs like Tylenol, ibuprofen or those used to treat breast cancer ineffective 

Using cannabis can worsen memory, concentration and decision-making, another study claims

Mental health toll of cannabis soared after Scots went soft on the drug six years ago, data suggests 
After surgery to clean the wound and stop the bleeding, the man was interviewed by a psychiatrist.

Urine tests taken from the man confirmed the presence of THC, the psychoactive chemical in cannabis responsible for giving people the sensation of feeling 'high'. 

The psychiatrist found the man was suffering from both visual and auditory hallucinations, such as seeing shadows move and hearing animal noises like birds chirping and insects buzzing. 

He was also found to be coherent but, delusional, with a restricted emotional range.

However, professionals deemed that he was not suicidal and diagnosed him as having suffered from substance-induced psychotic disorder.   

After a two-week stay in hospital the man was able to urinate while seated and reported that the hallucinations had ceased.

Dr Tangsuwanaruk said a planned surgery to extend the length of the man's remaining penis did not go ahead as the patient had moved away.    

The original source of man's erection pain remains a mystery but, Dr Tangsuwanaruk said it may have been a case of priapism, a painful erection lasting longer than four hours. 

However, Dr Tangsuwanaruk said an official diagnosis for priapism in this patient's case is impossible due to the self-amputation before the four-hour mark.

The NHS advises anyone with an erection lasting longer than two hours to call 999 or go to A&E as it can cause permanent damage to the penis. 

Cannabis-induced psychosis is a known potential side effect of using the drug, though self-genital mutilation as result is rare.

Smoking cannabis can cause mild hallucinations generally, as well as sense of anxiety but this is normally not psychosis. 

The authors of the most recent case reported said that while the true prevalence is unknown, there have been about 100 cases of substance-induced psychosis resulting in self-genital-mutilation within the past 20 years. 

However, they added that the severity of psychosis people can experience after using cannabis depends on the amount of THC consumed. 

Skunk — which makes up most of the cannabis sold on Britain's streets — contains  more THC than traditional strains. 

It is purposely created by dealers aiming to make the most potent strain of the drug possible in order to maximise their profits.   

While the medics did not detail exactly when the case occurred, Thailand is currently undergoing a cannabis revolution.

Last week it became the first country in Asia to decriminalise marijuana though its use as a recreational product is still a grey area.

It followed Thailand removing cannabis, the plant species to which both marijuana and hemp belong, from the list of illegal drugs under Thailand´s narcotics laws in December 2021.

A British citizen died on Saturday when he attempted to base jump from the 29th floor of a condominium in Pattaya but his parachute failed to deploy.

 

Pattaya police say that the victim, 33-year-old Nathy Odinson, owned the Nathy’s Sky Photography website and asked a friend to film his jump from the condominium as online video content.

 

His parachute, which was still attached to him, failed to open, causing him to crash into a tree and then to the ground.

 

An employee at the condominium reportedly told the police that the victim had previously visited the condominium and yesterday he parked his car, took a lift to the 29th floor and jumped.
