The woman ran pretty far too, at least eight-ten meters before she simply got ahead because the snake stopped her, he laughingly told NRK.

There were many cars at the gas station during the incident .

– I and several others hung on his whistle to try to stop the woman. And when she did, she said ‘No, no, no, it’s possible, “and stood stunned. After a bit she sat into the car again, and backed to get the gun out of the car.

Wahlquist says that there was traffic chaos at the gas station during the incident.
