The fearless teen, Trymore Musonza caught the snake on a Wednesday afternoon last week, much to the awe of onlookers. He then bagged the cold-blooded creature and took it to St Mary’s Police Station.

But Parks and Wildlife officials professed ignorance about the development and said they were yet to get in touch with the Police.

The hero, Trymore, claimed that he is no stranger to these daring feats as he has been at it since he was a little boy.

“Residents called me to catch the snake after they saw it in the cabin at a house. I just used my bare hands in catching the snake and this is the seventh snake I have caught and taken to St Mary’s Police Station,” he said.IHarare
