And here it is – the snake which police ‘apprehended’ going about its business today.
The four foot long corn snake, which had been sighted for over a week but remained at large, is now in a temporary home at a local pet shop.
The police have now proudly posted the proof of their adventures via social media.
The Corn Snake, which is native to central and the south east of North America, had been on the loose in the Tandragee area.
The PSNI had called in staff from NI Water who captured the snake in the Tandragee area.
And for those who found it a little far-fetched, well doubt no more!
