theist Posted April 23, 2002 Report Share Posted April 23, 2002 Father Bites Off Son's Thumb .c The Associated Press PHOENIX (AP) - A man who told police he bit off his 2-year-old son's thumb, and apparently held it in his mouth for about six hours, was arrested for child abuse and aggravated assault, authorities said Sunday. Police responding to a 911 call Saturday night found Raymond Jones running on a street naked, said police Sgt. Bill Knight. Jones, 39, told detectives he had taken several hits of the hallucinogen PCP and had swallowed his son's thumb because he wanted to mix their DNA, Knight said. However, Jones apparently had the thumb in his mouth rather than swallowing it, and coughed it out while he was being interviewed by police. The child was found alone, several blocks away at the entrance of the trailer park where they lived. Doctors were not able to reattach the thumb.
