In Shandong, located along China’s eastern coast, emergency hospital staff reported a case of child abuse to local police.

The child, Xiao Yu, age 9, is still healthy and alive, but missing his right index finger.

When police questioned the boy he explained that his day had begun with breakfast and then after breakfast his stepmother called him into her bedroom. She said she had some things she needed to tell him.

Once in the bedroom, she tied Xiao Yu’s hands and feet together with wire and then stuffed a piece of cloth into his mouth. She then pulled out a kitchen knife, cut off the little boy’s right index finger, and abandoned him.

Xiao Yu said he watched her pick up a suitcase and leave. He said he easily slipped the bindings on his hands, because the blood made everything slippery, and then untied himself. Xiao Yu washed his hands before leaving the house and going to find a neighbor who called 911.

Xiao Yu’s father was contacted at work and rushed to the hospital. He would later discover that his second wife had also made off with the ATM cards, drained his bank accounts, and taken their marriage certificate. He’s been forced to borrow money to pay for Xiao Yu’s surgery.

As Xiao Yu’s finger has never been found, police speculate his sick stepmother may have taken it with her.

Xiao Yu’s father said he knew his new wife didn’t like his son but he never imagined she’d do something so pointlessly cruel as this.

Doctors said that right now Xiao Yu is too young, but once he’s older they could perform a digit transplant and attach a toe as a replacement for his missing finger. Unfortunately, until then Xiao Yu’s just going to have to resign himself to resembling Middle Earth’s greatest hero, Frodo of the nine fingers.

Police are still searching for Xiao Yu’s stepmother.
