There was mayhem on a peaceful Accra street when a large snake, resembling a python, appeared and wriggled its way to safety, frightening everyone in the vicinity.
Because it was clearly afraid, the snake whose habitat was disturbed when a gardener was spraying a lawn in front of a luxury house swiftly moved to a probable sanctuary.
Those present, including a police officer, pursued it, but the situation was packed with drama, as the constable plainly chickened out after throwing one stone at the reptile and fled.
One civilian fired two shots at it, but the obstinate animal escaped unharmed and proceeded towards a large gutter.
After beating it with a heavy stick numerous times, it was the heroics of a man wearing a wellington boot who got the situation under control.
