A man in Madrid had the shock of his life when he went to an ATM to withdraw some cash and a snake slithered out of the dispenser. He managed to grab his money as the snake tried to attack him and he then alerted the police.
The snake had become trapped by the cash point mechanism but the bank manager activated the device from inside freeing the reptile which was put in a box and taken to a shelter. Police have not ruled out that it may have been a prank.
