Police rushed to an Albuquerque home invasion call and found an unusual intruder - a large snake.

Officers removed the slithering reptile after a woman called 911. Officials believe the snake slithered its way into her home, possibly through an open door.

The animal was removed and later released in an open space in the city. No injuries were reported.
