20-foot python found atop downtown LA dumpster

Questions remain Thursday morning about a 20-foot python that was placed into a plastic container and dumped in a trash bin in downtown Los Angeles.

Teresa Sanchez told KTLA she pulled into her garage in the Piero Apartments on St. Paul Street near the 110 Freeway and saw the snake atop a dumpster.

The snake appeared to be ailing, and after being unable to reach animal control and with no help available from the police, she started calling around and found Joseph Hart from SoCal Reptile Hunter. Hart removed the python and said it would be rehabilitated if possible.

It remains unclear who left the snake in the trash bin and if the creature was already sick when it was discarded.
