"The ongoing infrastructure work in our area has been causing quite a disturbance. As a result of this extensive project, we have been witnessing a significant increase in snake and mouse sightings. The snake we encountered today was unlike anything we had seen before. It was a large serpent that somehow managed to become entangled within the wheel, making it incredibly challenging for us to extract it. Despite our best efforts, we were unable to free the snake from its predicament," Ahmet Canarslan, a local shopkeeper, told reporters.
