Man tries to sic pet snake on police


I have never heard of a attack python before, but I like the idea of it. Most people are afraid of snakes, so by having a giant snake attack on command would be totally cool. Unfortunately for this guy his snake needs better training. Still not as cool as sharks with laser beams attached to their heads.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. - Bridgeport police say they arrested a city man after he ordered his pet to attack two officers. Lucky for them that 9-foot-long pythons aren’t very obedient.

Police Lt. James Viadero says 21-year-old Victor Rodriguez was charged with threatening police and disorderly conduct after Monday’s incident. No one was hurt.

Officers were called to Rodriguez’s apartment on a report that he was threatening his girlfriend with the pet reptile.

Viadero says that when the building superintendent opened the apartment door for the officers, Rodriguez allegedly threatened them with the snake and told it to "Get them!"
