Doorbell cam video of snake attacking man



When Jerel Heywood opened the screendoor at his friend Rodney Copeland’s house in Lawton, Oklahoma, a snake darted down from its roost on the porch light and bit Heywood’s head! A neighbor then rushed off over and dispatched the five-and-a-half-foot snake with a hammer.


Fortunately, the snake wasn’t venomous. Heywood went to the hospital where he received stitches and a round of antibiotics. According to CNN, Copeland “hopes to keep away any (other) potential lurkers by spraying the yard with sulfuric acid.”

“I hear they don’t like that,” he said.
