Moment massive snake slithers from hole in shop wall before being caught by Birmingham butchers
- last year
'Nightmarish' footage shows the moment a massive snake slithered out from a hole in a shop wall in the middle of a busy street in Birmingham.
The huge reptile can be seen emerging on the road outside a row of businesses along Witton Road, in Aston, Birmingham, on Monday (19/6).
The creature was caught by staff at a nearby butchers who lured it into a pipe before placing it into a plastic container.
It's the second time in a matter of days a snake has been captured in the area after police discovered a boa constrictor in the middle of the road on Saturday (17/6).
On that occasion officers ushered the animal into a pillow case using a broom before it was taken to a pet shop.
It is not yet known what has since happened to the second snake after it was caught by workers at Daud Halal Meat and Poultry.
But footage obtained by Birmz of Grime showing the moment it crawled out onto the busy road near Villa Park has been compared to a "horror film".
One web user said: "Na, you'd see me run a mile mate. Like something from a horror film that. My worst nightmare."
Another added: "Wots going on with all these snakes?"
A third put: "It was probably have been terrified itself, poor thing, hope it's somewhere safe now."
