Man refuses to return fingertip he found in custard







RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) ” To a dessert shop customer, the severed fingertip found in a pint of frozen custard could be worth big dollars in a potential lawsuit. To the shop worker who lost it, the value is far more than monetary.



But Clarence Stowers still has the digit, refusing to return the evidence so it could be reattached. And now it's too late for doctors to do anything for 23-year-old Brandon Fizer. "I'm not saying who has it, but somebody has it," Stowers said this week in a telephone interview, refusing to let on where the fingertip is now. Soon after Stowers found the finger in a mouthful of chocolate soft-serve he bought Sunday at Kohl's Frozen Custard in Wilmington, he put it in his freezer at home, taking it out only occasionally to show to television cameras. this guy stowers is a dirtbag!! kept the man's finger so he can sue!! i hope the judge jails HIM :mad:

I`m sure that when I worked in a meat factory way back in 1970, and a worker lost his thumb (presumably it had been sliced off into the pie mix), the production line was kept going!!! (of course, nobody in the UK would have sued then, but they might have sent a letter of complaint to the company or taken the pie back to the shop!)

I have taken severed parts in with patients in the past and it's really a short window where a part can be re-attached.



But I think I would still give it back.....lawsuit or not, I wouldn't want it.
