Campbellton, New Brunswick - Police say two young boys are
dead after they were strangled by a python that escaped its enclosure at a pet
store in Canada.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police Const. Julie Rogers-Marsh said
Monday the boys, aged five and seven, were sleeping in an apartment above
Reptile Ocean Inc. when the incident occurred in Campbellton, New Brunswick.
She says police arrived at the apartment around 6:30 a.m. and found the two
boys dead.
Rogers-Marsh says it’s believed the snake made its way into
the apartment through the ventilation system sometime through the overnight
hours. She says the snake was captured and is in the possession of police.
Rogers-Marsh says autopsies will be performed on the two
victims on Tuesday.
