8-Year-Old Boy Catches Piranha While Fishing

An 8-year-old boy was fishing in a Pennsylvania lake when he caught a piranha. The very name can cause one to conjure up an image of terrifying teeth. The boy, Seamus Coffey, spoke with Inside Edition's Justin Finch. Piranhas are not native to U.S. waters. Wildlife officials say the fish may have been a pet in a home aquarium that was illegally released into the lake. The boy's father says the youngster has a new nickname after his wild catch: Famous Seamus.
