Suicide by snakebite?

Death of Texas teen who died from a possible cobra snakebite is now being investigated as a SUICIDE
"Austin police said they have collected evidence that has led them to investigate Grant Thompson's death as a possible suicide
Thompson, 18, was found unresponsive with puncture wounds on his wrist inside his parked Kia Soul on Tuesday in a Lowe's parking lot
On Friday, police said they found dead the missing cobra belonging to Thompson and believed to be connected to his death
Thompson passed away late Tuesday at St. David's Round Rock Medical Center"
I would categorize that as one of the worst ways to commit suicide.

Looks like a murder-suicide to me.

Dude was apparently snakebit....with bad luck.

I'm thinking this is linked to the home Depot Mexican drill incident. Give me some time to get my report together

Maybe he killed it after it bit him so whoever found him wouldn't have to deal with an unexpected cobra.

How does one go about owning a fricking cobra?

I'm more worried about toilet snakes.

"An employee of CarMax, a car dealer next to the Lowe’s store, told police he had kept a watch for the snake and called 311 when he spotted it on the service road, officials said.
Mark Sloat, animal protection supervisor at Austin Animal Center, said the snake appears to have been run over but his head was intact."

I was a lot happier before I had the knowledge that there were shitheads running around out there with pet cobras.

Weird situation. Kid found dead by snake bite and snake found dead a few blocks away after being run over by vehicle.

Sounds like the snake got depressed and committed suicide, too.
