Proper sentence usage

Could someone help me with proper sentence structure? I have two sentences but they sound redundant together. (Would this be incorrect? If so, what's a better way to put them together?)


"A rock hit the side of his face. The rock was bleeding as it left his face."

"A rock hit the side of his face. " This means that blood was coming from inside the rock. This is nonsense.
