Thieves accused of using snakes to rob store

Four people allegedly robbed a grocery store while wielding pythons.

Police in Tennessee are looking for two females and two males, who entered a Citgo on 4 March and stole CBD oil “valued at $400”, with employees telling how the group were “waving” the non-venomous snakes around to scare the staff.

Employee Mayur Raval, who was on duty with his brother, told WREG-TV News: “They were just waving [the pythons] around and putting them on the counter.

“They pulled their car up to the front of the door. I think they planned to successfully come here and rob the store. The snake is a weapon, you know.”

Authorities in Madison County have shared photos from store surveillance footage on their CrimeStoppers account and are appealing for information.
