Muslim Man Cuts Off His Hand in Butcher Shop

In a surreal scene, police said a man purposely cut off one of his hands in a Springfield butcher shop Saturday evening.

The grisly incident occurred in Super Halal Meat along the 7000 block of Spring Garden Drive, which bisects Brookfield Plaza, home to numerous Asian, Indian and Middle Eastern eateries and markets.

"I'm still numb talking about it," said Vikas Sinsunwal, who saw the man after he severed his hand.

Sinsunwal said he was outside his parents store, Niralla Sweets, when the man, announcing "I did this for Allah," approached his parents' shop lifting his bloody left arm into the air. "I could actually see bone in his wrist," he said.

He said after staring through the front window of his parents' store for several seconds, Sinsunwal said the man then walked toward traffic on busy Backlick Road as people poured out from surrounding businesses. He said police eventually arrived and grabbed the man as he attempted to evade the officers.

Mary Mulrenan, a spokeswoman with the Fairfax County Police Department, said officers were called to the scene for a person brandishing a weapon, but instead found "a man missing a hand."

After securing the man, she said police then called paramedics who transported him to Inova Fairfax Hospital for medical treatment and psychological evaluation.

Mulrenan would not say how the man, who was not identified, amputated his hand.

However, local NBC 4 News reported the man, while waiting on his order of goat meat, walked behind the butcher shop's counter and sliced off his hand presumably with an electric meat cutter. His teenage son was with him at the time.

Police said no criminal charges will be filed.

If only other radical Muslims would do the same, except cut off their own heads instead, the War on Terror would be a hell of a lot easier to fight.

[Shaun_MD]

Boy Allah must love his hand sandwiches...

[cripplecreek]

Super Halal Meats cost most people an arm and a leg. This guy got a deal.

[theDentist]

Agreed... As long as they maim themselves instead of innocent men, women, and children, let 'em flail away all they wish.

[MarineDad]

"...while waiting on his order of goat meat, walked behind the butcher shop's counter and sliced off his hand presumably with an electric meat cutter."

Jeez! And I thought gas prices were high!

[GourmetDan]

If they would go ahead and cut off certain other parts of their bodies, the entire problem would disappear in about one generation.

Do it for Allah, please.

[Jameison]

Yep.
Its a practice we have to encourage amongst the Islamofacists.
They can chop each other's heads off.

[Citizen4Right]

Since we didn't get to see it the first time, I want him to show us again with the other hand...

[Red Badger]

If thy left hand offend thee, then cut it off!.........

[Jameison]

Simultaneously

[P-Marlowe]

This is just great. Now this guy is going to be on disability and welfare for the rest of his life. Isn't immigration grand? We let these nutjobs in the country and they chop off one hand and then use the other to apply for government benefits.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Hope he's ambidextrous. Wait, that wouldn't work...

[CT-Freeper]

Hand & cheese on rye, perhaps??

[Red Badger]

...while waiting on his order of goat meat.....

Note to self: Refrain from eating goat meat for the rest of your life..........

[cripplecreek]

However, local NBC 4 News reported the man, while waiting on his order of goat meat, walked behind the butcher shop's counter and sliced off his hand presumably with an electric meat cutter. His teenage son was with him at the time.

Unfortunately he was probably teaching his son a lesson about sacrifice for allah (feces be upon him). The son is probably a future suicide bomber.

[Condor51]

Wow, he did it for Allah. I've really got to hand it to him.

[Red Badger]

Well, he could have been mentally ill.........but, on the other hand........

[bboop]

oh HELLO???!!!!!

[Red Badger]

Now he can sue the deli owner for negligence.......

[taxed2death]

What a farce of a religion.

[Right Wing Agitator]

I guess he'll have to wipe and eat with the same hand now.
This must be the muslim equivalent of 'cutting off your nose to spite your face'.

[ConservativeDude]

"...while waiting on his order of goat meat, walked behind the butcher shop's counter and sliced off his hand presumably with an electric meat cutter..."

I don't believe I have ever heard those exact words ever before.

[ChildOfThe60s]

Because of Bush, he is living hand to mouth, subsisting on finger sandwiches

[Shaun_MD]

Hand and cheese or a plain ol' Hand omelet. Man I'm starving. I could just eat my right arm.

[Beckwith]

Well, he could have been mentally ill

Liberalism is a mental disease. Muzzie-hood is full blown psychosis.

[MarineDad]

Top o' the morning to you, too!

How can I be of service?

[Kenton]

Uh oh. Now he's gotta use the same hand he eats with to wipe his butt. That's a BIG no-no in Islam.

I don't know if "allah" is gonna be all that pleased...

[poindexters brother]

Let's give Allah a big hand!

[dagoofyfoot]

Do it for Allah, please.


Let's hope that we're witnessing a new trend here!


It's seems this man had to inspired by Allah to come up with such a clever idea, peace be upon him!

[tumblindice]

Hey, all I said was, "Can you give me a hand?"

[ZULU]

He chopped off the wrong appendage - and he should have been charged with SOMETHING.

Once again, the west reacts by withdrawing from Islamic lunacy.

[Thudd]

This wouldn't have happened if Kerry were president.

[all_mighty_dollar]

So now he gets SSI disability/welfare for the rest of his life?

He can go back to the ME backcountry and live like a sheik on Uncle Sam's dime? or does he even need to leave the USA?

So who actually is 'winning'?

[adm5]

General Mills announced today that it will be introducing a new dinner time product that taps into the lucrative muslim demographic.

Halil Handburger Helper.

I'll be here all week, please tip your waitresses and bartenders.

[xp38]

Like George Castanza....he has no hand.

[IrwinvilleConservative]

Did any else notice that the article doesn't mention the word Muslim or Islam? The title should read "Muslim Man Cuts Off his Hand"

If it were a Christian, I'm sure the paper would point out that fact.

[LachlanMinnesota]

Now who supports him and what government program will have to pay? He gives his hand to Allah, and we give our treasure to him...

[evets]

Gee, yeah Willie,
I hate when that happens.

[4yearlurker]

What the hell is a "electric meat cutter?" He used the band saw or whacked it with a cleaver.

[LachlanMinnesota]

A Muslim cuts off an offending hand, so what was he doing with that hand that lead him to punish himself in that way?

I think he divorced himself from his hand-maiden, Rosie Palm.

[Dallas59]

LOL! Why didn't he instead just do the time honored Muslim ritual of cutting his head off for Allah.

[bboop]

hahah, I think I was just commenting on this idiot cutting off his own hand for Allah. The ROP, it's sort of a different worldview -- I am daily having a hard time getting my arms around it.

[freedomlover]

If he cut it off with one of those circular slicers he knows something I don't.

(remembering scene from Children of the Corn)

[KirbDog]

"What the hell is a "electric meat cutter?" He used the band saw or whacked it with a cleaver."

I wondered the same thing and finally decided it had to be a band saw.

Kirby

[MarineDad]

Ain't that the truth!

Every sane person would have a very difficult time trying to fathom such things...

[freedomlover]

After securing the man

---

I guess cuffs weren't a big help.

"Show me your hands . . . er . . hand!

[4yearlurker]

The only thing that will cut through bone is the band saw,hand saw or cleaver.(after several whacks!)

[Gorzaloon]

Let's give Allah a big hand!

Hahaha..or "All Hands On Deck".

Or maybe he was just taking some brutal vow of Chastity.

Ahh, those whacky Muzzies.

[MarineDad]

With any luck, maybe he'll get around to that when he's finally released from the hospital and gets a hankering for 'slammic cabrito again...

[Mr. Brightside]

police eventually arrived and grabbed the man as he attempted to evade the officers.

I suppose the handcuffs didn't work.
