Barron Co. Officialsssssssssss Resssssspond to Ssssstrange Call

It’s not the kind of animal control call police in northwestern Wisconsin expect to get everyday. 

Deputies in Barron County took to Facebook yesterday to share their story of pulling a huge snake off of a home in Chetek.  The snake, either a boa constrictor or python, escaped at the house and made its way to the roof.  That’s when officers got the call.  The sheriff’s office shared pictures of the snake, which they call a ‘nope rope,’ and said the call about a giant snake was ‘an undersell.’ CLICK HERE TO SEE THE FOOTAGE.
