Snake loose in Warren family's apartment

WARREN

A family living in the Candlelight Apartments on Berkshire Drive Southeast may not sleep well if they don’t soon discover where a 30-inch brown and black snake went.

A man living at 4241 Berkshire said he and his family had come home from a few days away and found the snake in the apartment Thursday morning.

“They moved the couch, and it went somewhere, but it’s still in the apartment,” John Onatz, the Warren police animal-control officer, told dispatchers.

The family told Onatz that the snake did not belong to them and that they “searched and searched, [and] they cannot find him anywhere,” Onatz said.
