"Because the snake was so large, the midsection of the snake was wrapped around the throat. The head of the snake was just far enough away from the victim that the officer made a split-second decision and he proceeded to shoot the snake in the head," said Lt. Peter Nickischer with the Upper Macungie Township Police Department."It wasn't like it just died.
Residents said they have frequently seen their neighbor in his front yard holding a snake, and they've seen multiple snakes through the window."I think one of the officers described it as a scene from a horror movie, and that's probably the most appropriate way to describe it," said Nickischer.Copyright © 2022 WPVI-TV.
