Here's a text version of the story.

NORTH PLAINFIELD, N.J. -- A North Plainfield couple have their toilet back now that they removed the 6-foot snake that was blocking the drain.
Police called Craig Ost, a local pet shop owner who rescued the reptile.
The snake, which prefers warm climates, was at death's doorstep, Ost told The Star-Ledger of Newark.
Veterinary technician Jason Zayle is caring for it now. He said she's not a bad snake.
What's not clear is how Freddy got into the toilet. The homeowners think the snake slithered into the sewer system, but Zayle told the newspaper the reptile was probably abandoned and made its way into the home.
