Brooklyn, NY – A Midwood, Brooklyn, Orthodox Jewish family got a scaly shock yesterday morning, looking out their kitchen window to see a 5-foot-long rat snake sneaking along the driveway.

The homeowner spotted the slithering serpent about 10:30 a.m., as it creeped along the Avenue M driveway.
The family, observing the Simchat Torah holiday, asked their housekeeper to call 911, and a pair of NYPD Emergency Services Unit officers responded. One of them quickly corraled the rat-hungry reptile as a small crowd watched. [nypost]
