UK Family Horrified as 'very dangerous' 18ft Python slithers into their Home!

The 38kg Pythonwas spotted by neighbours as it slithered its way across a roof before forcing its way through the upstairs window.

The very dangerous 38kg snake was spotted by neighbours as it slithered across a roof before forcing its way through the upstairswindow.

Worried residents inside managed to use a broom handle to fight off the albino Burmese Python, poking it back out before it fell 20ft onto the bonnet of a car below, landing with an "almighty thud".

A neighbour then looked after the huge serpent in her conservatory until it woke up.

The shocking episode unfolded in the early hours at a row of of terrace houses in Chandler's Ford, near Southampton, Hampshire.

Jenny Warwick, 62, first noticed the enormous snake making its way across the roof of the houses opposite at around 5.30am.

"I saw something on the roof and thought it must be a plastic tube, but then its head started moving," she said.

"I told my husband, Steven, but he said 'don't be silly.'

"I have a dog called Rodney, and he was really barking and going mad.

"I asked a neighbour outside if they could see something on the roof because I didn't have my glasses and I wasn't sure if I was seeing things. We realised that it was definitely a snake and it was moving all over the roof trying to find a way to get down.

"My husband hates snakes, and he couldn't get to work fast enough. It's not what you want to see first thing in the morning, I think it's very irresponsible to let it loose."

Passersby were horrified by the sight and some even "grabbed their dogs" to keep them away from the 18ft beast.

Mrs Warwick, who has lived on the street for 36 years, saw the residents of the house try to "poke" the "frightening" snake out of the window "using a broom handle".

Residents used a broom to fight off the 18ft albino Burmese python before it fell 20ft on to the bonnet of a car and made an "almighty thud".

It was later gathered that the python belong to a man,residing in a house a short distance away,who had carelessly let the python loose to the threat of lives in the neighborhood.
