A man who died after cutting off his own penis on a downtown Los Angeles street has been identified.

Ryan Sutherland, 31, died from “sharp force injuries” after police found him self-mutilating near the intersection of Figueroa Street and Pico Boulevard early Saturday morning, according to the LA County Medical Examiner. His death was ruled a suicide.

Sutherland, who was discovered near the Los Angeles Convention Center, also slashed his own throat, stabbed himself and tried to cut off his own arm, law enforcement sources told TMZ.

Price of oil sent him over edge.

PCP strikes again, or was it bath salts?

I heard there’s some dedicated street performers in Los Angeles but this one’s going to be hard to beat.

How much money did he collect?

I took it home. Washed it off, and put it back on.I was happy again. Complete.

[Why?]

” So you wanna hear a theory? Mmm-hmm.
You went down to that garage to buy this sword from that guy.”

” Wanna hear another theory? This Sutherland was so upset about the lousy wrestling tonight, that he went down to the garage and in a fit of depression cut off his own penis, arm,...stabbed himself...”

That’s dedication.

Pico and Figueroa. A nasty neighborhood.

Pictures,or it didn’t happen

He lost two heads at once.

It’s detachable.

Yes, but there ARE consequences. 🤪

[Chewbarkah]

Very sad for someone to crash and burn like this. Presumably he had family who cared about him at some time. Ugh.

Duct tape is a wonderful thing

He probably heard CNN talking about how he would die if America outlawed gender reassignment , and thought he was saving his own life by doing it himself.

Libtards, the leading cause of mental illnesses in others.

Why?

Well, the damned insurance companies would not pay for it!

The fella was known for going off half-cocked anyway.

[Elsie]

...he was heard muttering, “I’d give me right arm to be ambidextrous.”

... but this one’s going to be hard to beat.

GROAN...
