The snake expert in Llanelli, Wales, said that he was called to an apartment by police in the middle of the night last week, to investigate a snake that his in the homeowner’s computer.

Geraint Hopkins was called around 2:30 a.m. by South Wales police, after they responded to the scene and saw what appeared to be a snake in the man’s computer.

The man told police that he bought the computer in Cardiff, and when he inspected it, he found the snake inside. Hopkins said that upon further examination, he realized that the snake is just a black and red computer cable.

Police officers first thought that the snake expert was joking, but when they poked it, they realized that the snake was indeed a cable.
