LAPD posted images of the snakes on Instagram, after officers had to handle the snakes on Hollywood Boulevard.
The department says their Hollywood vice officers noticed a man parading exotic snakes around for tourist money. When they tried contacting him as he walked past the Hollywood Wax Museum, the man "slithered" away, but left the snakes behind.
The snakes were placed in a bin by officers and delivered to L.A. Animal Control.
It's unclear what type of snakes they are.
LAPD's Vice Unit has been around for a while. It focuses on policing high-concentration areas like Hollywood Boulevard, typically handling things like prostitution, narcotics, and nightlife regulation. Add to that-- snake wrangling.
