Spanish man shocked after snake slithers out of cashpoint

The middle-aged man, from Llodio in the Northern Basque region, had stopped off at the ATM outside the Caja Madrid bank on his way to work. Despite getting a shock from the hissing snake which emerged from the machine and tried to attack him, he managed to grab his money before calling the police. And in video footage of the incident posted on YouTube, a policeman is seen attempting to move the creature with a baton before officers - together with the bank manager - discovered that the snake was trapped by the mechanism of the cash machine. The manager subsequently activated the machine from the inside to free the snake, which was put into a box and taken to an animal shelter. Police have not ruled out the possibility that the snake may have been placed in the cash machine as a prank. However it is also possible that as the cash machine is in a rural area the reptile made its way inside of its own accord.
