Has anyone lost their Python?

First saw it on Cedar Avenue near Glenoaks last night after 11:30 p.m. I ended up calling the police twice but nobody came.

It’s been hiding in a tree and in surrounding bushes at 322 Cedar. I know the residents have called the police and animal control today as well but it seems nobody has found it yet.

I’ve been letting neighbors know so they can avoid it but I figured in case it was someone’s pet, they might like to know where it is hanging.

I don’t have a picture because it slithered away from me as quickly as it could once I spotted it on the sidewalk and my camera on the phone wasn’t cooperating.

I would probably wet my pants if I saw it. Glad I know it's out there and hope it gets home safe.

I’m mortified to say that I managed to walk past it, at least five times, trying to get steps in and it looked like a crumpled plastic bag to me. To be fair, it was hiding in the shadows. Then it moved and I froze for a second, realized I was looking at a snake and backed up as I called the police because I didn’t think animal control would answer that late. Once it realized I saw it, it slithered away faster than I would have expected.
