Snake gets stuck behind car steering wheel

A five-foot long boa constrictor became stuck behind the steering wheel of a car dashboard in Bristol yesterday.

The snake, which belongs to Miguel Reid from Brislington, was on its way to see the vet when it escaped from a rucksack.

It took two vets and a mechanic three hours to set it free. The pet, which is called "Snake", spent the night in the vet's surgery to recover from its ordeal.
