Terrified woman returns home to find python in the toilet

A woman in Thailand was given a shock after returning home to find a python in her toilet.

Factory worker Duangta Boonmee, 36, says she screamed when she saw the 7ft-long snake curled up in her home last week.

Duangta threw a blanket over the serpent to stop it from escaping then called the emergency services for help.

Rescue workers arrived and peered behind the bathroom door before catching the python with a snake-catching rod.

Duangta said she was relieved she noticed the snake before it had a chance to attack her.
