On July 10, 2015, Sioux Falls Police and Sioux Falls Animal Control Officers were made aware of a poisonous snake bite.  A 19 year old male was bitten on the arm by his pet rattlesnake, and had gone to Sanford hospital to seek treatment.  The investigation and followup of the bite yielded information that the subject had other poisonous reptiles in his home.  A search warrant was obtained and a home on the East side of Sioux Falls was searched for the remaining snakes.  Three rattlesnakes were removed from the home.
