UPPER MACUNGIE TWP., Pa. -- Police in Pennsylvania said an officer shot a man's pet snake after it wrapped itself around his neck and would not let go.Police said they asked the dispatcher to repeat the call because it was so unusual.
A family member led them to the 28-year-old man who was lying on the floor unresponsive with a 15-foot snake wrapped around his neck.Police in Upper Macungie Township, Pennsylvania shot a snake that wrapped itself around a man's neck. Lt. Peter Nickischer speaks to WFMZ-TV about the incident on July 20, 2022.
"Because the snake was so large, the midsection of the snake was wrapped around the throat," said Lt. Peter Nickischer with the Upper Macungie Township Police Department."The head of the snake was just far enough away from the victim that the officer made a split-second decision and he proceeded to shoot the snake in the head.""It wasn't like it just died," Lt. Nickischer said.
Neighbors said they have frequently seen their neighbor in his front yard holding a snake, and they've seen multiple snakes through the window."I think one of the officers described it as a scene from a horror movie, and that's probably the most appropriate way to describe it," said Nickischer. The man was still alive when emergency responders rushed him to the hospital, but his current condition is unknown, Lt. Nickischer said.
