Testicle munching fish now found in River Seine in Paris
A South American fish known as the "ball-cutter" due to its taste for human testicles has been caught in Paris' Seine river.

The French capital is reeling from the news that a Parisian fisherman found the testicle-munching fish with eerily human teeth at the end of his line late last week.

River police soon confirmed it was none other than the pacu, a cousin of the piranha.

The Amazonian fish sparked a panic among Swedish bathers last month when a eight inch specimen was caught in a sound off the country's southern coast.

A Paris police photo shows the pace caught last week measured just over 1 foot.

The freshwater fish, which can grow up to 35 inches and weigh up to 55lb, has been nicknamed the "ball cutter" for its attacks on the male genitalia.

In areas where packs proliferate, fishermen have reportedly bled to death after losing their testicles to the fish's crushing jaws.

Found in most rivers in the Amazon and Orinoco basins in South America, they have also been spotted in Papua New Guinea, where it is believed they have been introduced to boost fish stocks.

After the catch in Sweden, Henrik Carl, a fish expert at the Danish National History Museum, said: "The pace is not normally dangerous to people but it has quite a serious bite. There have been incidents in other countries, such as Papua New Guinea where some men have had their testicles bitten off."

"They bite because they're hungry, and testicles sit nicely in their mouth," he explained.

"And its mouth is not so big, so of course it normally eats nuts, fruit, and small fish, but human testicles are just a natural target," he added.

Paris river police regularly find unusual species in the Seine. Last year they pulled out a headless nine foot long royal python.

"It's usually new pets that have grown too big and thoughtless owners abandon in the Seine when they can no longer control them," said the Paris police in its weekly newsletter.

I think that guy at the end really smashed his head on the concrete before he started getting throttled.

He sure did. That's what happens when you can't fight your way out of a wet paper bag and you pick a fight with someone who can.

Fucking idiots though, man. I forget that this type of shit still goes on and appears to be worse than when I was out at the bars when I was younger.

[Araxi]

Stupid shit like that is a very common occurrence where I come from, that's one of the reasons I now live here. Oh and that dude that smashed his head was ok, he was released 2hrs after he got to the hospital.

I don't know about worse, but I'm so glad that is so far away from where I am in life now. I haven't stepped a foot into Peake's in ten years!

His lawyer, Richard Meehan, told NBC Connecticut that Callahan was distraught over an ongoing divorce and never intended to blow up Richards or anyone else.

...cops found several thousand pounds of explosive chemicals in his garage, including one vat Callahan said contained the explosive material used in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing...Callahan also said he had a stash of the same chemicals used in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, as well as a collection of hand-built rockets and detonators.

Man Calls 911 After Being Over Charged 1 Penny For a Beer

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - A 51-year-old Memphis man was arrested Monday after calling 911 to complain that a store clerk over charged him 1 penny for a beer. According to The Commercial Appeal, Danny Smith called emergency services twice and then followed it up with another call to a non-emergency number after being dissatisfied.

The beer in question - a 16-ounce Heineken. When the store clerk refused to hand over the penny, Smith reportedly called 911. When police arrived, they informed Smith that the incident was a civil matter. Apparently that was not the answer he was looking for. After his third call to police, Smith was arrested.

Bail cost him $250.
