Apparently Jared isn't the only one who likes Subway. Customers at the Foley sandwich shop on Highway 59 were greeted by a four-foot long snake sunbathing on the sidewalk outside the front of the store this morning. Frightened employees at the bank next door called police, hoping officers would remove the curious reptile. A patrolman picked up the snake and dumped him inside a box then it was off to the police station for "questioning."

Police officers on the scene tell News 5 they respond to all types of different calls and emergencies, but a snake call hasn't been dispatched in quite a while. Officers say snakes are making more appearances and are more visible now after last weekend's heavy rain.

The ones that give me a real scare is the Cotton mouth. These I have run across have been real aggressive,if you go toward them they’ll meet you half way and not run like most all other snakes. I,ve nearly beaten the bottom out of a boat from one dropping in,if it stayed I was going to swim home,it would just have to learn how to operate the boat by it’s self.

If the officer needed me as a witness, he would be out of luck. I would be long gone. I would not be able to tell him the length, the color or anything except that it was a SNAKE and I was out of there.
