snake on the loose in Stoke-on-Trent

is that a grass snake? It certainly isn't an adder as claimed by people quoted in the article.
 
It is indeed a grass snake. Some people will say anything to get a public fuss made, and to find a pretext to write a scaremongering news article......
 
Which headline would an editor go for?

' killer snake terrorises public in main street'

or

'lucky people spot harmless grass snake in town centre'
