Police were left a little constricted when they found a python during an arrest in Strathmore last week.
It is alleged a woman attended a property on Milton Court in Heidelberg Heights on 23 February where she allegedly damaged property.
A 34-year-old Essendon woman was located and arrested by Transit police at Strathmore Railway Station about 9.20pm on 5 March.
During the arrest, the woman claimed she had a snake down her pants.
Officers searched the woman and located a small python.
Her slithery co-offender was safely put into a box and collected by DECA.
The woman was charged with criminal damage and trespass.
She was bailed to appear at Heidelberg Magistrates' Court on 29 April.
