Police use Taser on python to free man
`A police officer used a Taser to subdue a python that had wrapped itself around a man’s arm and would not let go. Steve Crilly, 47, was feeding a rat to the eight-foot-long albino Burmese python, which belongs to his daughter, when it when it bit his left hand and wrapped tightly around his left arm Wednesday night, Uniontown patrolman Ray Miller said.
“The snake was on his arm and was eating his hand,” Miller told the Herald-Standard of Uniontown for Friday’s editions. Crilly “was very calm, considering there was a good bit of blood,” he said.’
