    Calif. Man Opens Package in Mail and Finds Live Rattlesnake — And His Family in Fla. Got Similar Parcel

    A man says he suspects that someone attempted to murder him after he was mailed a live rattlesnake.

    Elijah Bowles of Florida told the Los Angeles Times that on Thursday, May 16, he and a friend were driving away from the post office in Twentynine Palms, Calif. — in the Mojave Desert and near Joshua Tree National Park — where he had just picked up a package. As the pair were in the car, Bowles asked his friend to open the box, he said.

    "When she opened the box, she threw it at me almost,” he told the Times. "And she says, 'There's a snake in there.'"

    The 60-year-old truck driver then pulled over, placed the box on the ground and proceeded to open it with a stick. He estimated the snake, later determined to be a rattlesnake, was over two feet long and surrounded by cotton balls in the box so that postal workers could not hear the rattle, he told the outlet.

    After Bowles called 911, deputies and animal control officers from the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department (SBCSD) responded, the department said. The investigation is now being handled by the U.S. Postal Inspector, the SBCSD said.

    SBCSD public information officer Mara Rodriguez told PEOPLE in a statement that animal control took possession of the snake.

    According to the Times, a postal inspector said that the package was marked "fragile" in black marker and had a return address in Palm Coast, Fla. Tracking information also states that the box was mailed from Hayward, Calif., near the San Francisco Bay Area, on May 3.

    Bowles told the Times that he worried the snake was intentionally sent to harm him — especially after he learned on Monday, May 20, that another virtually identical package had been sent to his house in Florida. He told his family members to take it to the police station rather than open it, he said.

    “That’s attempted murder, if you ask me,” Bowles told the outlet.

    "I'm trying to figure out, do I have any enemies?" he added. "I'm not a gangster. I'm a truck driver."

    The U.S. Postal Inspector did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment.

    Rick Boyd, the Twentynine Palms Animal Control supervisor, told the Times that the snake was a Western rattlesnake, also known as the Northern Pacific rattlesnake. These snakes are usually found in Northern California, rather than Southern California, where Twentynine Palms is located.

    The California Department of Fish and Wildlife states that in the event of a snake bite, the victim should remove any items that can constrict swelling, such as watches rings and shoes, and should be taken to the nearest medical facility. The wound should not be packed with ice, and no one should apply a tourniquet. The wound should not be cut with a knife or a razor.
