One thief learnt the hard way that it’s a crazy world we live in when he stole a wallet from a native doctor only for it to turn into a snake in his hands.
The guy tried all he could to throw away the snake but it clung to him not letting go, and he had no choice but to go to the owner of the stolen wallet.
The incident left onlookers perplexed as he tried to save himself from the embarrassing and frightening incident, which they termed to be a result of “black magic”.
According to reports, the 27-year-old man snatched the wallet from the stranger, not knowing what he was getting himself into as the owner was said to be a witch doctor.
After running away with the wallet, the guy tried to open it, it suddenly turned into a cobra and immediately wrapped itself around his hand.
One of the eye witness said the terrified thief searched around for the old man, and found him just about to board a taxi where he confessed to have stolen his wallet and was returning it.
“He stole a wallet from an old man; people around are just saying the old man is a Sangoma (native doctor), but no one knows the man around. When he snatched the wallet he went behind a billboard; that’s when the wallet turned into a snake.
“The snake is not biting him but it’s stuck in his hands as he failed to throw it away; this is first-grade black magic.
“The police just come after a commotion but they ignored the case. I am not sure what he is thinking right now but if the owner denies the wallet, they will have to visit a popular local sangoma to cast out the spell,” the witness said.
Dear thieves, the next time you snatch someone’s wallet be ready for such a terrifying experience.
