Pet Store Thief Bitten
A pet store thief found that trying to steal two tiger python snakes from the Animal Trax pet store in New Jersey had more than the usual consequences. The thief put one python in a pants pockets and the snake bit him in his private parts as he drove away from the store, the Courier-Post in Cherry Hill, N.J., reports. The snake bite isn't poisonous, but the 20-year-old man, who declined medical treatment, says he had rigged canvas bags to the pockets of his slacks to conceal the snakes. The snake got out of the bag, wrapped itself around the man's leg and began to squeeze it before biting him, said Greenwich Township Detective Sgt. Joseph M. Giordano Jr.
