Python bites Calif. boy in bed

[mysteriew]

A 12-year-old boy awoke to an unpleasant surprise this week when a python bit him in his bed. Michael Rodriguez discovered the 4-foot snake clinging to his right arm early Monday morning. He flailed his arm, flinging the snake to the carpet.

Talk about getting up, on the wrong side of the bed!

Okay, now I am sure there are many sleuthers out there who like the repltilian friends...but I was raised by the theory that the only good snake is a dead snake. In Miami they lay all over the roads to get warmth from the sunshine, and they make good targets. Nothing better than a dead water moccassin (sp?)
Where did the snake come from? Was it a family pet? Yuk!
