ROSE HILL, KS — Not a fan of snakes? Then you aren't going like this story from Kansas.

Police were called after a Rose Hill man searching his couch for his keys found something else.

Under the cushions, there was a huge boa constrictor.

Deputy fire chief and locally-known snake enthusiast Melvin Linot was called in.

No word on how the estimated 6 to 8 foot-long snake ended up in the couch.

But it's now in the care of a pet shop.
