Another snakebite victim was reported in the Highland Lakes area Sunday, March 18.
The call for aid for a woman on Happy Hollow Road in the Fairland area who had been bitten on the foot came in to the Burnet County Sheriff's Department at 12:42 p.m.
The Marble Falls Area Emergency Medical Service (MFAEMS) could confirm only that the female patient was transported directly to Baylor Scott & White Marble Falls, where treatment was begun. She was transferred to Baylor Scott & White Temple for continued care.
“At the time of our transport to Temple, the patient was in stable condition,” said Kevin Naumann, MFAEMS operations director.
