Hawk drops snake onto Texas woman and attacks them both NBC 7 San Diego

In a bizarre series of events, a routine lawn-mowing chore turned into a terrifying ordeal for a woman in Silsbee, Texas, after she was attacked by a snake and a hawk at the same time.

Peggy Jones was mowing her lawn Tuesday when a snake fell from the sky and wrapped itself around her arm. As she tried to rid of the clinging reptile, it began snapping at her face and broke her glasses.

While the snake was gripping tightly at her forearm, a hawk suddenly swooped down from above and began attacking Jones, attempting to wrest away the slithery serpent.

“I just kept saying, Help me, Jesus. Help me, Jesus, ” she told NBC affiliate KPRC-TV.

Jones recalled the hawk coming at her at least four times before it finally pulled the snake off and flew away.

Sounds like demons to me. Sometimes you have to pray repeatedly to get any response to this sort of thing. But which side was the hawk on? Hard to say.
