74-year-old man illegally castrates another man, arrested

An elderly man was arrested for castrating another man despite him not having a medical license to perform the operation.

Gary Van Rysywk did the procedure in a house in Florida, United States last Sunday, Aug. 18 as per the Highlands County Sheriff’s Office post on Facebook, Tuesday, Aug. 20.

Police were notified of the incident when they received a 911 call from the house, moments after the procedure failed.

Upon the officer’s arrival at the site, he was met by the 74-year-old. He then told the police he had just performed a castration on another man.

Authorities found the man in a room set up like a surgical center, on a bed with a towel over his heavily-bleeding groin.

Two body parts that “had recently been much closer to the victim” were discovered in a pink container nearby. There was also a camera set up to record the procedure.

The victim was then brought to a hospital and later flown to a regional medical center. According to the police, he is in stable condition.

Rysywk told authorities he met the patient on a website for people with a castration fetish. He assured the man he had previous experience with castration on animals. He also added that he successfully removed one of his own testicles in 2012.


Authorities found out that this was not the first time Ryswyk had attempted to castrate a man. Ryswyk admitted to conducting a similar procedure on a man in a local motel before. The attempt was also unsuccessful, with the man ending up in a hospital as well. Law enforcement was not notified of the said incident at the time.

Rysywyk was arrested on Monday, Aug. 19 with a bond of $250,000 (around P13 million). He was charged with practicing medicine without a license, resulting in bodily injury. JB

Woman served cold fries fires gun, arrested after car chase

A woman was arrested for reportedly firing a gun inside a fast food restaurant in Georgia, United States, after receiving cold fries.

Lillian Tarver left the restaurant with her order but came back, claiming the fries served to her were cold, last Tuesday, July 16.

The manager of the McDonald’s branch was replacing Tarver’s fries when one of the employees, Lynn Watson, got into a verbal argument with the woman, as per CBS-affiliate WTOC on Monday, July 22.

While Tarver was arguing with the employee, she threw a drink at Watson and the manager. Tarver then went behind the counter and into the kitchen where she got into a brawl with Watson.

“We were physically fighting because I had to grab her because she was putting up a set like this, and I had to seize my moment when I knew I could. When she bent down, I grabbed her hair and just started slinging her across the floor,” Watson told WTOC in an interview.

After the fight, Tarver left the restaurant to go to her car. She then returned with a gun in her hands, which she used to fire a shot into the kitchen floor.


As per report, the incident ended when Tarver left the establishment after receiving a refund from the store’s owner.

Police arrived at the scene after Tarver had already left the location. Garden City Police Department Detective Roberto Rodriguez told USA Today in a separate report on July 23, that an officer saw her leave the restaurant in a car “at a high rate of speed.”

When authorities caught up with her and asked her to pull over, she initially refused. Tarver surrendered after a “10- to 15-minute” chase, Rodriguez said in the report. He also stated that no one was injured during the incident.

Police then booked Tarver into the Chatham County Jail where she is being held without bond. She also faces charges of aggravated assault, armed robbery and fleeing police, among nine other charges, as per the Chatham County Sheriff’s Office. Ryan Arcadio/JB
