Police Nab Suspects in Ohio Snake Theft
`A mother and son accused of stealing a snake from a pet store were arrested when they returned to the store and asked for books on how to care for the animal, police said.
Store clerks recognized the suspects from surveillance video taken during the theft and stalled them until police arrived.
The video showed the 15-year-old taking the 30-inch baby boa from its cage, wrapping it around his neck and hiding it with his jacket, while his mother acted as a lookout, police said.’
