A woman in Missouri was shocked after she spotted a snake in her car while she was driving. She called the Eureka Police Department while driving along Interstate 44 after she spotted the reptile.

Police said in a Facebook post Thursday that a “young lady” was driving when she saw a snake in her car. They said the snake was “coiled up under the floor mat next to the soda bottle.” She then called the police department for help.

“I’m not a snake kind of guy. Good thing other officers are,” the post said. The officers could not get the snake out of the car.

"The car was towed at owner's request to a location where we will wait for the little guy to show himself and hopefully leave the vehicle peacefully," the post said.

In another incident last month, a Missouri woman found a huge snake in her kitchen. The big ratsnake was hiding inside the woman's stove behind the electrical panel at her home in Marionville.

The Missouri Department of Conservation shared details about the incident on social media. One of their agents was called out to the southwest Missouri home to remove the snake. When the official arrived, the snake was not found at first. Later, it was seen cozied up inside the stove. The agent was able to remove the snake from the house and release it outside.
