Police in an Alabama say they've captured an 11-foot-long python several days after its escape.

Police say the animal escaped from a home in Albertville on Aug. 12.

Authorities say Rogue, the missing python, was found in a creek Sunday near the owner's home.

Albertville Police Chief Doug Pollard tells WBRC-TV that he received a call Sunday afternoon from a patrol supervisor, who said that Rogue had been found alive.

Police say the snake is now back home with its owners.
