Rattlesnake ‘Went ‘Tssss’ With Its Tail’ Said 8 Year-old Bitten At School

A Texas state trooper on Monday captured a rattlesnake at an Eastland elementary school — four days after it bit a second-grader.

The boy, 8-year-old Edwin Garcia, was released from a Fort Worth hospital on Saturday and is now at home recovering.

Garcia said he was reaching in a cabinet for a towel when the venomous snake appeared out of nowhere and attacked his right hand.
