“Not by a ROUS but by a rattlesnake,” said the actor, referring to a rat-like creature from his famous movie. “Grateful to the staff of Malibu Urgent Care, LA County Fire Dept., staff and medical professionals at UCLAHealth for their superior care.”
Paramedics were dispatched to a home in the 23,000 block of Pacific Coast Highway just before 3 p.m. Saturday, the Los Angeles County Fire Department confirmed to Eyewitness News.
Elwes was sent to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center after being bitten. The actor was reportedly doing yard work when he came across the snake.
In his tweet, Elwes said he is “recovering well”.
