Damn the Python 🐍…😀

Look before you sit — anywhere, really.

An Austrian man learned that lesson the hard way when he was bitten by his neighbor’s python while sitting on the toilet of his own apartment Monday, police said. The 65-year-old man, who was on his first bathroom visit of the morning, “felt a ‘nip’ in the genital area” shortly after sitting on the toilet around 6 a.m., according to a statement from police in the southern Styria province. The stunned victim looked down and saw the 5-foot visitor inside his toilet bowl. Police believe the albino reticulated python escaped from a neighboring apartment and possibly slithered through the drains.

The younger man said he did not realize the python had escaped, but he’s now under investigation for a possible charge of causing bodily harm by negligence. Police said the victim was taken to a hospital with minor injuries. The incident happened in the city of Graz, capital of Styria and more than 100 miles south of Vienna.
