They found the mothereffin' snake on the mothereffin' train - alive

MBTA Transit Police tweet workers on the Red Line found Penelope, so it's safe to put your feet down on the train again (or stop worrying whether ceiling snake is watching you).

MBTA spokesman Joe Pesaturo says a rider spotted the snake this morning. Tonight, Red Line train attendant Sharon Lynch, "a pet snake owner herself," managed to snare Penelope, who is being returned to her owner tonight.

The Globe talked to Penelope's owner, who said she will keep taking the snake with her on T rides but will "probably pay a little bit more attention."
