Sioux Falls, S.D. – A South Dakota man had to be taken to a hospital for treatment after being bitten by a cobra inside his home. As reported by KELO Sioux Falls, the man had multiple venomous stakes in his apartment and he was bitten after knocking over a plastic tote containing two cobras.
The man, whose condition is unknown, was bitten after stepping on one of the snakes that was knocked out of the tote. Responding officers found two cobras loose in the apartment, and one Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake still contained.
All of the snakes were seized and taken to Reptile Gardens in Rapid City. Officials remind the public that it is illegal to own venomous snakes in the state due to the obvious danger they present.
