Snake bites man, he retaliates with two fierce bites, kills the reptile

Quick to react, Lohar grabbed the snake and bit it twice. His bites were fierce enough to kill the reptile. This action stemmed from a local myth that biting a snake back could reverse the effects of the venom, a Times of India report stated.

Fortunately, Lohar’s colleagues rushed him to Rajauli subdivision hospital. According to the report, Dr Satish Chandra Sinha treated the man. Lohar was kept overnight for observation and was discharged on Wednesday.

Sinha confirmed that Lohar responded well to the treatment. However, the specific type of snake that bit the railway employee remains unknown.
