BROWNWOOD, -- Authorities were trying to determine whether a man actually was bitten by a rattlesnake in a Wal-Mart, as he claimed.

When firefighters arrived about 1 p.m. Monday, they found a small dead Western Diamondback rattler in a box.

A man, whose name was not released, told firefighters he reached for a pair of shoes in the shoe department when the snake bit his hand, fire Capt. Larry Butler said.

The man said he stomped the snake to death, then walked to the sporting goods section and told an employee he had been bitten, Butler said.

"I can tell you right now what the police told us -- that they were going to the hospital to question this gentleman," assistant store manager Cynthia Jones said. "They said it didn't look like a freshly killed snake."

The man was alert when ambulance workers wheeled him out of the store and took him to a nearby hospital, Butler said.

"There were some pretty excited people" at the scene, Butler said. "I wouldn't say really panicked," he said. "I would say (they were) quite bewildered. I know this is a first for me."
