June 17 (UPI) -- Commuters were evacuated from a Hong Kong train during rush hour Monday morning when a snake measuring more than a foot long was spotted on board.
Police said the Island Line MTR train was evacuated at Admiralty station at 7:37 a.m. Monday when passengers spotted the snake slithering loose through a train car.
The passengers were boarded onto a replacement train and MTR employees were able to capture the serpent in a cardboard box.
The snake was carted away by police and a snake catcher later identified the reptile as a California king snake, a non-venomous species native to the United States.
Police said the snake will be taken to Kadoorie Farm for care.
