BEIJING - A man dumped a box containing more than a hundred snakes in a busy market area in China, causing panic among shopkeepers and buyers.
The 60-cm-long reptiles were dropped Tuesday afternoon at Quanxin Bedclothes Market in Hankou in Hubei province, China Daily reported Wednesday.
The man poured out all the snakes from the box before fleeing, said a saleswoman named Zhang. “The snakes were suddenly scrambling everywhere,” she said.
Police were called in and they managed to round up the snakes back into a box within half an hour without causing any injury.
