A Florida man has been arrested for allegedly biting the head off a pet python in the middle of a domestic dispute, police said.
Kevin Justin Mayorga, 22, is accused of sinking his teeth into the snake after he got into an argument with a woman in a Cutler Bay apartment early Monday, NBC Miami reported.
Cops encountered the decapitated python after they responded to reports of the domestic incident just after 5:30 a.m.
The officers reported hearing a man and woman screaming inside the apartment before the female shouted for police to “just kick the door in.”
Mayorga subsequently blocked officers from entering and briefly held the woman against her will, police said.
An officer tried to use a Taser on Mayorga after he refused orders to come out with his hands up, but was unable to subdue him.
Mayorga allegedly struck another cop in the face with a handcuff when that officer tried to detain him.
Police found the snake and its severed head near the front door after Mayorga was eventually detained.
The woman told officers that Mayorga had bitten the pet’s head off during their argument.

Probably tasted like raw chicken
That’s not something you see every day
EEEEWWWW!!!!......................
He went Full Ozzy.
ILLEGAL??
Ozzy, that you?
Hmm. I wonder whether drugs and booze were involved.
Or maybe he just woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
Definitely a “Florida man”.
Why would this be a crime in a state where they’re trying to eradicate pythons?
His Python had a six inch barrel. Now it’s four inches.
If only Adam had thought of that.
She wouldn’t chew on his so he bit hers off.

I guess you could say its been severed.
You beat me to it.
“Chewed off” would likely be a more nearly correct term. “Bite” implies it was a single action. I doubt even Richard Kiel (Jaws in “The Spy Who Loved Me”) could “bite” off the head of even a juvenile python. But screw accuracy, “bite” made a more tantalizing headline.
