Pennsylvania man dies after being suffocated by pet boa constrictor that was shot by police
2022-07-26
[FOX] Police in Upper Macungie Township, Pennsylvania, attempted to save a 27-year-old man who was being suffocated by a pet boa constrictor in his home last week by shooting the reptile, but the man succumbed to his injuries on Sunday, the Lehigh County Coroner announced.

Elliot Senseman, 27, died from an anoxic brain injury due to asphyxiation by constriction, meaning that the snake completely cut off oxygen to his brain, the coroner said.

A Pennsylvanian fag, no Thulsa Doom,
lived alone with a snake, all agloom.
One day his friend, Big Boa,
hugged him too tight and 'whoa!'
The cops, there in a minute tops,
hadda shoot 'ol Serpent badda boom.

But too late, the man was dead.
No, not by donut eater lead.
Ha ha ha, that'd be wicked.
See, the snake had squeezed too tight.
If Eve taught anything, in falling,
it's that serpents just ain't right.
