A Southlake girl is okay after getting stuck in a drainage pipe and getting up-close-and-personal with a couple of snakes.
Police say the 11-year-old named Tori was out playing with her 13-year-old sister when out of curiosity she shimmied into a drainage pipe.
The tale is told in a series of tweets from Southlake DPS which documents the ordeal with pictures.
Tori crawled into the pipe but when she turned around to get out her path was blocked by a large snake. When she tried another route she was confronted by another snake.
Now good and trapped, Tori asked sister Carly to get their mom who called police.
Officers came out and found a frightened Tori underneath a heavy grate. Using their combined strength, the officers lifted the grate and helped Tori out unharmed. Turns out the reptiles were scary but quite harmless. They were later identified as rat snakes.
