This is the terrifying moment a python was spotted slithering in front of a shop, sparking panic among onlookers.

Johna Mae Manliclic was getting her CPU fixed at an electronics centre when the 5ft reticulated python suddenly crawled toward a nearby store in Cavite, the Philippines.

Footage shows the predator wandering across the concrete pavement on June 14.

Moments later, a brave local attempted to catch the serpent by grabbing its tail. However, the agile reptile quickly lunged at him, nearly biting him.

The incident caused shoppers to scream in alarm.

Meanwhile, concerned residents called a nearby animal rescue team, who promptly arrived and safely retrieved the serpent.

Pythons are non-venomous constrictors known for ambushing their prey and wrapping around it to suffocate it.

These snakes wander into residential areas in search of food, especially during hot seasons when their natural habitats are disturbed.
