THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: A bizarre and alarming incident occurred in Maranalloor, Thiruvananthapuram, when an autorickshaw driver lost control of his vehicle after a snake coiled around his neck while he was driving.
The driver, identified as Vishnu, was transporting waste materials collected by the Haritha Karma Sena when the reptile, believed to have emerged from the waste, unexpectedly wrapped itself around his neck.
In a desperate attempt to remove the snake from his neck, Vishnu lost control of the autorickshaw, which subsequently rammed into an electric pole. He sustained serious injuries in the accident and was rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment.
