In August, Duquesne police sent a warning to residents about a python that was on the loose in the city. The pet snake has been found and is reunited with its owner.

A house painter found the snake curled up in the bushes on State Street on Thursday.

Dan Shanley told KDKA-TV in August that his son collapsed while holding his snake, named Gene Simmons, on a walk near State and Mehaffey streets.
