5-foot-long python bites man in the genitals in the toilet

A 65-year-old Austrian man was bitten on the genital area by a 5.25-foot python during his early morning visit to the toilet at his home.

According to the statement by police in Styria province, the victim ‘felt a pinch in the genital area’ shortly after sitting on the toilet at his home in Graz.

It’s still unclear how the loose reptile made its way to the 65-year-old man’s toilet, but police believe that the snake apparently got there by sliding through the drains from the neighbour’s apartment.

The victim’s neighbour, who owns 11 snakes, has been reported to the prosecutors' office on suspicion of negligently causing bodily harm, the police in Styria said.
