Snakes in a hotel room!
A maid at the Hy-Way Motel near Fairfax City, Virginia, got quite a surprise recently when she discovered that several duffel bags that had been left in one of the motel's rooms were full of exotic snakes.Twelve of the 17 snakes found were venomous; two had died, giving off an odor that attracted the maid's attention.
The Washington Post is reporting that the snakes belong to a man from Arlington County, Virginia, who was known to keep more than 100 exotic snakes in his home, but had been recently ordered by county authorities to remove them by the beginning of the month.
The man had apparently rented the Hy-Way Motel room for an entire week just to store some of his snakes there.
The man was not present when the snakes were discovered.
