Reader report: Smell of smoke, and, maybe, a missing snake on East Fifth Street

A reader sent along these photos these evening... noting that the FDNY responded to a call at 225 E. Fifth St. ...


... a firefighter said that a resident had smelled smoke...


... meanwhile, during all this, the man outside was yelling, looking for his snake.




...it was ultimately a false alarm... the only damage were the two broken front doors at No. 225 ... Don't know about the snake.

Wasn’t this guy in Woody Allen’s “What Up Tiger Lily”. I know, showing my age.
Around 36.14 in.

I told you guys about my parents snake story from Brooklyn Heights in the 70s right? Short story, they found a 6ft albino python in their bathtub, get a scotch or two in my Dad, and he can add the artistic flourishes.

You usually see that snake guy clomping around the east village making weird noises and eating chuckles


Might video him next time I see him

@ randall: You beat me to the comment, I thought of Duanne Allman also. This guy looks like he is no stranger to "Smoke"

This dude is looking for his snake, his shirt and the 1970's.
