is being treated at a Boston hospital after getting stung
by a scorpion at Logan Airport, according to the Massachusetts

The incident happened as the woman was collecting her bags
at her flying back from Mexico.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
Yeah, so it must have either gotten in the plane
or in somebody's luggage, So it's unclear where it came from.
State Police wouldn't say the scorpion was captured or is
still crying around the Terminal's terrifying. This is a quote
from a traveler quote. It's a it's probably hiding somewhere.
I'd be concerned if I was nightcrew when it comes out,
but I wouldn't be too concerned about it. Now, Like

they asked a dude, so nonchalant, Yeah, yeah, yeah. So
there's this professor who like specialized in scorpions. He said
that the actual sting feels like quote a hot needle
getting into your skin.

to have.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
I used to be.

Terrified to scorpions when I was little because I don't
know movies. And then as I grew up, I was like,
I don't need to worry about scorpions. There are none,
and now stories like this, and also I don't know
if you know this, there were apparently incidents with scorpions
at the radio station in Tampa. Oh yeah, previously I
had heard about.

to the hospital, I say, because it could be like poisonous. Well, yeah,
there's all some more two thousand scorpions species.
