LARKSVILLE — Talk about getting screwed.

A man who officials say was intoxicated is being treated after putting a nail in a cringe-worthy place in his body.

At approximately 5 p.m. on Thursday, police were notified of a medical call on East Main Street.

An officer responded and learned that a 50-year-old male, who was allegedly intoxicated, stuck a 2- to 3-inch screw up his genitalia and was unable to urinate.

The male, who was not identified, was transported to a local hospital for treatment, police said.
