Cedric Jelks, a 38-year-old driver has accidentally blown his own p*nis off when he sat on a gun while getting into his vehicle.
According to Daily Star UK, Cedric Jelks triggered the bullet which destroyed his manhood when he sat on the gun that was laying on the driver’s seat.
Jelks was taken to hospital, but it is not clear if the doctors were able to save the remainder of his genitals.
Cops in Jacksonville, Florida, say they are now investigating why a loaded and cocked gun was left in a such precarious position.
Jelks was unable to explain to officers what happened when he sustained the excruciating injury, News4Jax reported.
He was taken to Memorial Hospital by Shanekia Roberts, who told police that the man was sitting in his Nissan Altima by himself and coming into her home on Freedom Crossing Trial in a panic and running straight to the bathroom.
The 25-year-old said she followed him and saw that he had a gunshot wound to his penis.
She immediately took him to hospital where he was rushed into surgery.
Police were called to the hospital just before 3am because medics reported the injury were caused by the firearm.
Investigators found that the man was convicted of cocaine possession in 2004.
It is possible he will be facing charges for possessing a firearm, because he is a convicted felon.
