Please be advised.<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
Police were notified and responded to an address on Settlers Lane in order to capture and destroy a copperhead snake. As I’m sure you are aware, a bite from a copperhead will most certainly send you to the hospital and in some cases cause death.<\/span><\/p>\n
Spring is the time of the year that snakes of all types generally emerge from their winter dens.<\/span><\/p>\n
The purpose of this post is to advise you to be aware and keep a lookout for these creatures. If you see one and you suspect it may be harmful, please stay away and alert the proper authorities listed below..<\/span><\/p>\n
NOTE: Do not provoke or attempt to catch or handle any snake that you cannot properly identify – it may be a venomous snake. If you are bitten by a venomous snake, you should immediately get medical attention at a hospital.<\/h3>\n
Should you see a snake or any other creature you believe to be harmful, please call the Kure Beach Police dept. at (910) 458-7586. They will respond and determine what actions, if any, should be taken.<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
