SHELBY, NC (WBTV) -
Police in Shelby say they arrested a woman over the weekend after she squeezed a man's testicles out of his scrotum.
Joyce Maxine Gregory, 35, is charged with malicious castration and assault inflicting serious bodily injury, according to Shelby Police Chief Jeff Ledford.
Police say Gregory got into an argument with an older man Saturday morning. When he went outside to call 911 she followed him and grabbed his scrotum.
The man ran to a nearby rescue squad building for help.
Police were sent to the residence on Bowman Street to arrest Gregory. When she was placed in the patrol car, she pulled down her pants and urinated in the backseat.
