I don't really remember when it happened (80s? 90s?) but here's what I remember. Some guy stole either one or two Gaboon vipers from the zoo. He took them on the metro bus home, though he didnt get that far before there was some sort of commotion. I vaguely remember he had it (or them) in a bag, or maybe in his pants, though maybe thats a joke made at the time.

Does anyone remember this and know the details? I especially wondered about what happened to the Gaboon Vipers, and oh yeah, what happened to the guy too.

Did anyone else get hurt? Gaboon Vipers are pretty mellow, patient snakes, but also very venomous. I can easily imagine them cuddling up under the bus seats by the engine for warmth.
