MIRI: A python weighing at 4kg was successfully removed from a house’s ceiling in Taman Tunku in the wee hours on Sunday.
Three Miri Civil Degence force (APM) personnel were despatched to the scene after receiving a distressed call around 12.41am from the house owner.
According to the 63-year-old owner, he and his family spotted the reptile slithering through the ceiling of the house earlier that night.
Worried for their safety, he immediately called up the APM for assistance.
It took APM nearly two hours to remove the two-metre-long reptile safely from the house’s ceiling.
