By …Friend picks up and leaves with severed hand after fight
In a shocking incident that unfolded in the small town of San Pedro de Macorís in the southern part of the Dominican Republic, two men engaged in a vicious machete duel that left one of them with a severed hand. The intense battle, captured on video by eyewitnesses, took place on Tuesday outside a gas station and has since gone viral due to its movie-like brutality.
The footage shows the two combatants facing off on the sidewalk, their machetes clashing against each other as they exchange wild swings and hacks. Initially, it appears that one man may have the upper hand as he forces his opponent to the ground. However, the man on the ground manages to fend off his attacker with a series of kicks and slashes from his back, eventually forcing his way to his knee.
In a shocking turn of events, the man on the ground delivers a decisive blow, cleanly slicing off his opponent’s hand at the wrist. Despite the gruesome injury, the maimed man calmly walks away from the scene, his shirt completely drenched in blood. Meanwhile, the man who lost his hand walks in the opposite direction, seemingly unfazed by the loss of his limb.
Astonishingly, the injured man then proceeds to pick up his severed hand from the ground and walks off, leaving onlookers stunned by the surreal scene that had just unfolded before their eyes.
According to local reports citing eyewitnesses, the two men involved in the altercation were actually friends, and the violent confrontation was reportedly sparked by a dispute over a woman. The injured man was rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment, but it remains unclear whether doctors were able to successfully re-attach his severed hand.
As of now, there is no information regarding whether the other man involved in the machete fight will face any legal charges for his role in the incident.
The shocking video of the bloody confrontation has spread rapidly on social media, drawing attention to the brutal nature of the fight and the incredible composure displayed by the injured man in the aftermath of losing his hand. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the potential for violence to escalate quickly and the devastating consequences that can result from such altercations.
The authorities in San Pedro de Macorís are likely to investigate the incident further to determine the exact circumstances that led to the machete fight and whether any legal action should be taken against those involved. The gruesome nature of the video and the reported reason behind the altercation have left many questioning the safety and security measures in place in the town and the broader societal issues that may have contributed to such a violent outcome.
