A man staying at The Venetian in Las Vegas had a terrifying experience as he was stung on his testicles by a scorpion while he was sleeping in his hotel room. This shocking incident occurred on December 26 and has left the victim, Michael Farchi from California, in excruciating pain.
According to KLAS 8 News Now, Farchi woke up feeling like he was being stabbed in his private area, describing the sensation as sharp glass or a knife. He discovered a scorpion hanging on his underwear and snapped a few photos of the bright orange creature.
Farchi, who was on a family trip, immediately went to the bathroom to inspect the source of the pain. He was in so much agony that he decided to seek medical help at a nearby hospital.
Although the hotel staff compensated Farchi’s room in the aftermath and claimed to have followed all protocols, Farchi is now contemplating legal action. It is unknown how the scorpion entered the hotel room in the first place.
Regarding the incident, a representative of The Venetian stated, “The resort has protocols for all incidents and we can confirm they were followed in this incident.”
These uncommon and troubling incidents serve as a reminder for both tourists and hotel managements to remain cautious and take necessary measures to prevent such occurrences.
