Snake on a train forces mass evacuation

A snake has forced 450 passengers off a train in Switzerland while police searched for the reptile.

The 50cm, non-venomous garter snake was spotted by commuters as they boarded the early morning service from Bern to Basel.

Passengers were put on another train that left around half an hour later.

The snake was eventually tracked down to a ventilation shaft and captured.
