Man convicted of biting neighbor's penis during fight

DOVER, England, Sept. 17 (UPI) -- A British man convicted of biting his neighbor's penis during a fight about loud music told a court he is "not a gay man in any way."

Jason Martin, 41, of Dover, England, was convicted of wounding with intent to cause serious injury after a Canterbury Crown Court jury heard how the nearly toothless defendant bit and gnawed on neighbor Richard Henderson's penis after the victim sent him a text asking him to turn down his music, Kentonline.co.uk reported Tuesday.

Henderson, who required stitches on his penis after the fight, told the jury he had "never experienced that kind of pain to this day and I don't want to experience it ever again."

Martin told the jury he did not bite his neighbor's penis, but he did admit grabbing the other man's "bits and bobs" during the fight.

"I didn't do that ... I am not a gay man in any way. The thought of putting a man's penis in my mouth ... well it's not for me. Not in a million years would I do it!" he said.

Martin was remanded in custody with sentencing scheduled for next month.
