A man has handed in what is believed to be a severed penis at a police station on the NSW Central Coast.

Authorities say the man walked into Toukley Police Station just before midday claiming to have found a human penis inside a plastic bag.





He told officers it had been discovered by his neighbours' dog at a park 60km away.

Ambulance officers were called to inspect the contents of the bag.

"It appeared to be some form of tissue matter that could be a penis,” a police spokesperson said

He confirmed the 'unidentified item' had been taken to John Hunter Hospital for forensic examination.

“First we have to establish if it is human and if it is obviously the investigation will widen from there."
