KANSAS CITY, Mo (Reuters) - A Kansas woman faces a charge of harboring a vicious animal after her pet python grabbed onto her neck and would not let go until a police officer intervened.

Chrystal Wilson of Lyons, Kan., took the eight-foot-long albino snake from its cage for feeding Tuesday when it clasped its jaws on the side of her neck, Police Chief Chris Detmer said Friday. Luckily, the snake has small teeth rather than sharp fangs, he said.
A child in the house called police. Officer Max Bryant forced the jaws of the snake apart with his hands. Bryant will get a citation for bravery from the Lyons City Council, Detmer said.
"There's not too many guys or women who would grab it by the end of the mouth like that," Detmer said. The snake was not wrapped around Wilson but she was reportedly visibly upset because she could not get it off her neck, Detmer said.
Wilson is in her mid 20s and moved to Lyons about a year ago, Detmer said. She was ordered to remove the snake from the home because it poses a risk to children there, he said. She received a misdemeanor citation for harboring the snake.
Neither Wilson nor Bryant could be reached for comment Friday.

why not just give the snake some rum or listerine? its a lot easier than calling the police, getting a citation, making some idiot a hero, and having your pet taken away from you. Anyone with a snake over 6 feet should know that alcohol will make it let go.
 
I have had to make my water monitor drunk a few times when he bit onto me. He had expensive taste too. Once all I had was some crown royal and it took the whole bottle to get him to let go but I still have my hand....
 
At least it didn't grab one of her kids when on the loose..
 
no kidding.

Edit- No pun intended. I just realized how cheesy that was.
 
If she didnt know how to stop a attack she shouldnt have aquired the snake in the first place period.

I agree. Or at least have some one present to pry it off of her so that she does not take the time of a police officer who could be doing something useful.

I have no faith in people any more.
