NYPD Officers Confiscate Boa Constrictor In Times Square

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) -- Painted topless women and costumed characters, and now also a boa constrictor.

That's what police say two officers found and confiscated in Times Square on Thursday.

The Midtown North Precinct tweeted a photo of two officers posing with the large yellow-and-white snake.

It is not clear how the snake ended up in Times Square.

Boa constrictors are not venomous.
