55-year-old man loses his penis after fight over parking space

A man has had his penis removed after getting into a row over a parking space in Minsk, central Belarus.

The argument broke out when a younger man, 33, took a shovel and used it to clean a space out of the snow for his wife to park. 

When he returned the shovel to the garage, another car driven by an older man, 55, took the space he'd cleared. The older man refused to move and the younger man allegedly stamped on his head and groin. 

He was rushed to hospital where doctors were forced to remove his penis.

He is still in hospital and the younger man has been arrested and is facing up to two years in jail.

Neither were named in local media reports.
