Snakes falling from Trees in Washington D.C frightening Children
May 31, 2013
WASHINGTON – They’re not on a plane, but snakes in a tree could still be scary — especially when they’re spotted in D.C. DCist says
an email in an Adams Morgan Yahoo Group by a D.C. police sergeant
discussed snakes falling out of trees at Walter Pierce Park in
Northwest. The posting was reported by the websitePoPville and reads: “On
Thursday, May 23, 2013 around 11:40am a call came in about a couple of
snakes that fell out of the trees. When the snakes fell they scared the
children, and everyone fled. This was in the playground area. I
responded but found no snakes. I caught one small enough to fit inside
an empty water bottle I had. It was probably a black rat snake. They are
indigenous to trees and the warm weather is drawing them out.” Albimar
Cuadrasleal, a painter who sometimes does work at a building near the
park, tells WTOP the snake sighting occurred around the time when he was
parking his car last Thursday. More
