00:00Meanwhile, a 7-year-old male student from Bagong Silang in La Caloocan City died in
00:05his sleep and of natural causes.
00:08The poor kid, thought to have succumbed to dehydration, sustained a bite from a venomous
00:13snake while deep in slumber.
00:15Oddly enough, the victim, who slept on the floor, was seen with a snake nearby, according
00:20to his mother, Zarina, who rushed to wake all her children and herded them out the door.
00:28This was in broad daylight at 10 in the morning, and she had no clue one of her sons had already
00:34sustained a snake bite.
00:35Thereafter, a combination of cytotoxins, myotoxins and anti-clotting agents from the venom gradually
00:42took its toll on the hapless child, who suffered symptoms of chills and throwing up until he
00:47was pronounced dead on arrival at 2.30 p.m. at a nearby hospital.
00:53Only during the poor child's wake did people notice the puncture wounds on the child's
00:58hand that sadly led to his untimely death.
