Despite the consultation and preparation by animal control officers, a venomous zebra cobra was captured on a north Raleigh porch Wednesday night, ending an eventful 48-hour period that attracted attention throughout North Carolina.

A red bucket was used to place the cobra in the bucket and to transport it to a location where all glue could be removed.

Earlier in the day, WRAL's cameras caught the snake crawling out of a siding onto a porch on Sandringham Drive. Looking around, its hood was visible as it lifted its head.

When officers confirmed it was the snake, they walked back from the camera crew before moving in to try and capture it.

On Tuesday, police searched the same home after receiving a 911 call there.
