A man's hand was cut off in an incident Sunday on the city's north side, according to the Rochester Police Department.
Police said officers responded to the area of Clifford and Joseph avenues around 8:20 p.m. Sunday for a report of a possible stabbing and found a 42-year-old man suffering from an "apparent laceration."
Captain Greg Bello later elaborated, saying officers "arrived to bystanders comforting and performing medical aid to the victim, who sustained a laceration severe enough that it severed his hand from his body."
Bello said officers immediately applied a tourniquet. The victim was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital and rushed into surgery. His injuries were no longer considered life-threatening.

Getting a slice of pecan pie? Stealing from a Muslim? Hand just jumped off the arm?
Just an “incident.” Nothing to worry about, citizens. “Look! Another World Cup game is underway!”
Share and sharia alike...
Police are stumped. The department is short-handed.
Picking his feet in Poughkeepsie
Ah yes, Rochester makes the news yet again!
(resident here)
The community was appalled at first judging by the comments sections of local media but then someone suggested that this had been done to a person who had been committing sex crimes against kids. No idea if it’s true or not but the public opinion switched from outraged to sort of accepting.
What a weird timeline we live in.
Sounds like the left hand may not have known what the right hand was doing ;-)
Never answer yes when someone from Rochester asks, “Can you give me a hand?”
They couldn’t get a grip...
At least the first responders gave the guy a hand!
“No suspects were in custody”
Well how about that....Barney Fife finally made sheriff.....who knew!
Urban America is unlivable.
I roll up my windows when driving through the city....hoping to deflect any bullets. It was a great city at one time...and now it’s a Dem hellhole.
I all but lost my index and middle finger on my left hand playing Army last century.
This was probably very painful.
Train and arm yourselves accordingly...
You’ll get far more off other media.
Who knows how much is reliable, bur here goes...
One hand was severed and tossed yards away, the other hand nearly severed.
The cops have an ID for the suspect, not named publicly, and the suspect is in the wind.
Joe I gotta hand it to you…pretty funny stuff…
Dear God, what a cesspool that city has become.
