Drug paraphernalia in “plain sight” led a police officer to a venomous discovery while conducting a car search, Colorado officials said.
While checking the car on May 26, the officer found a plastic bin, body camera footage from the Wheat Ridge Police Department posted on X, formerly Twitter, shows.
That’s when he found a live rattlesnake.
“Does he have any other thing that might bite me?” the officer can be heard saying in the video.
The car’s owner had lent the vehicle to a friend and was taking an Uber back to the location, officials said.
Officials said on X there will be no charges against the vehicle owner, but they’re trying to contact the friend because they “have a lot of questions.”
Wheat Ridge is about a 6-mile drive northwest of Denver.
