* high alert in office

Yesterday there was a high alert in the office. Someone saw a snake, but it hid somewhere and nobody knew, where it was. Eye witnesses were sure it was around 2 to 3 feet long. So we started to search for it. Since the office is not that big not many places are available for such a long snake. Finally we found it and managed to put it in a box.
The longest length of the box is one foot. It was so small that the snake could even hide under leaflets without you noticed it. If it had bitten someone (assuming it was poisonous) it would have been most likely not more than a normal mosquito bite. Anyway, high alert could be revoked shortly after that incident.
