Reno man taken to hospital after self-castration procedure

A 50-year-old Reno man told authorities he castrated himself to lower his libido and learned of the procedure on the Internet, police said.

Washoe Medical Center officials cited privacy issues on why they could not release any information on the man.

About 1:30 a.m. Monday, police said the man called 911 and asked for help because he could not stop the bleeding from a self-castration operation.

Reno police and medics responded to the man’s home near Brinkby Avenue and Robinhood Drive, and he was taken by ambulance to the hospital.

Hospital officials said the man successfully castrated himself, police reported. No further information was available.

“The man obviously needs some sort of counseling,” Reno police Lt. Ron Donnelly said.
