SHARPSBURG (KDKA) - Well, it appears the question "anyone missing a snake?" has yet to be answered in Ross Township.

Ross Township Police posted a follow-up to their Facebook about the large snake they found near the baseball fields on the Fourth of July.

Now, they're referring to the snake as "'Naners" and one local pet store, Sara's Pets and Plants in Sharpsburg, has taken him in to make sure he's healthy.

From there, they'll continue to try to find the owner but also put him up for adoption.

If you are the owner, you can call the Ross Township Police Department at 412-931-9070 or get in touch with Sara's Pets and Plants at this link.
