CITRUS HEIGHTS-

When a vent in the bathroom was making a hissing sound, the problem was bigger than a broken fan, about three feet bigger.

A snake was removed from the ceiling of a bathroom in a Citrus Heights apartment.

When the vent was making a weird sound, the person looked up and saw a snake staring back. Citrus Heights Police officers responded and removed it.

The snake is believed to be a ball python, and was about three-feet long. Officers knocked on doors at the apartment complex, and found the snake didn’t travel too far from home, just down one floor.
