Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko te 6ft-roa te roa o te nakahi pine raki i kitea i runga i te tihi o te kaukau i runga i te radiator. I ohorere tētahi kotiro taiohi i tana kitenga i tētahi nakahi whāriki nunui e piko ana ki runga ake i te papareti i roto i tana wharepaku. I whakaaro a Hannah Brierley, 16, kei te whakatangi tana whaea i te tinihanga i a ia e kite ana i te nakahi pine raki e ono whatianga te roa i runga i te papa kaukau i whakairihia ki te maroke i tona kainga i Rochdale, Manchester. I titiro a ia ki te reptile mo etahi meneti, tae noa ki te nekehanga, a ka karanga wawe ia ki tona whaea, a Karen Marriott, e 40 ona tau, kia haere ki runga. I whakamātau a Mrs Marriott ki te waea atu ki te RSCPA i te 7am inanahi i te ata, engari i muri i te kore e taea e ia te whakawhiti atu i a ia ka mataku, ka waea atu ki te 999. Ka mea ia: 'I te timatanga he marino a Hana. Kāore e taea e ia te mahi ki ngā pākoro, engari kāore au i te whakaaro he tūturu. 'Kua titiro ia i te reira mo te torutoru meneti tae noa neke reira. I whakaaro a ia kei te tawai ahau. 'I rite ahau ki te wally e waea ana ki te 999 engari kaore au i te mohio ki te aha. E mataku ana ahau nā te mea kāore au i te mōhio me pēhea i uru mai ai. 'Pērā i te mea i puta mai i tētahi pikitia. Kāore au i te mōhio me kata, me tangi rānei. I hiahia katoa te katoa ki te pee, engari kaore i taea e matou te haere.' Ko Craig Wallace, he kaitirotiro i te tari pirihimana o Rochdale, i rongo i te karanga o te ruma whakahaere, ahakoa ehara i te mea pirihimana, i tono ia ki te awhina i a ia e mohio ana ki te pupuri nakahi. I whakamahia e Det Con Wallace he kopare ki te hopu i te nakahi ma, a, ka kawea ki te teihana, i mua i te whakawhiti ki te tiaki o te RSPCA. I tapiritia mai e te kaitiaki: 'E pupuri ana ahau i nga nakahi, no reira he maha nga mea e mohio ana ahau mo ratou. He nakahi rākau ki te raki. Ka taea e rātau te wero kino, engari kāore rātau i te paitini. 'Mēnā ka werohia koe, ka uaua koe ki te tiki atu. I hoatu e ahau toku ringa i roto i te takai urunga ka mau i te hoki o tona matenga, ka takai i te reira ake. ' E whakapono ana ia ko te reptilia pea he kararehe a te whānau kua mawhiti, kua tukuna rānei, ā, kua uru mai ki roto i te whare i te wā mahana o nā tata nei. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. I kitea e Hannah Brierley 16-tau-te pakeke i whakaaro i te tuatahi ko te mea pea ko tana whaea....
I whakaaro a Hannah Brierley, 16, i te tīmatanga ko te nakahi 6ft-roa he tawai a te whaea. Engari i tana nekehanga ohorere ka mohio ia he pono te nakahi pine raki. I karanga ia ki te whaea o Karen Marriott i wehi ka karanga ki te pirihimana mo te awhina. I whakamahia e te Det Con Craig Wallace he kopare ki te hopu i a ia ka kawea ki RSPCA. E whakaponohia ana i uru mai i te matapihi, i te tatau rānei i te rangi mahana o nā tata nei.
