Carmiel municipality police stopped a private vehicle for a routine check. When officers detected “an unusual knife” in the vehicle, they became a bit more inquisitive. They saw a large blue bag that appeared to be moving, instructing the driver to open the bag.

The driver was happy to oblige. To their surprise, the bag contained three snakes.

Officers immediately called for the appropriate agency to respond to take control of the snakes. The driver, 24, a resident of one of the area villages, was detained for questioning.
