Australian police find 5.7m python in Queensland shop

A 5.7m (19ft) python has been seized after it fell from the ceiling of a charity shop in Australia.

The python, weighing 17kg (37lbs), was recovered by a snake-handler after police investigated a suspected break-in at the shop in Ingham, Queensland.

"Its head was the size of a small dog," said police spokesman Sgt Don Auld.

"When police were initially called to the property on Monday, they believed a person had fallen through the ceiling because the roof panel had been cut in half.

Crockery, clothes and other goods were scattered all over the floor."

Oh no! Not the prized Ming vase I hope!

"Sgt Auld said the snake must have been hiding when police went there the first time.

It has been released in nearby wetlands."

19 foot! Think of all the handbags and matching shoes it would have made

I don't think I could handle one like the guy in the picture. It looks like he's holding a giant vacuum cleaner hose.

Tommy I don't like snakes either, but pythons are relatively harmless and are usually unobtrusive. My son-in-law has one living in the shed it keeps the vermin down.

Mind you they've had a couple of cats go missing
