    Texas teenager dies of rabies from bat bite

    HOUSTON (Reuters) - A Texas teenager who was bitten by a bat while he slept in his home has died of rabies, the Houston hospital that treated him said in a statement.

    Zachary Jones, 16, died on Friday, a week after he became ill from the bat bite he received about a month before.

    According to U.S. Centers for Disease Control statistics, only 10 other people have died of rabies in the United States since 1998.
