The police will start with Alligator in front of the Sanford door

Sanford, Fla. – The police in Sanford had an unexpectedly reptile reason for waking up a few neighbors early Thursday.

One of these neighbors provided news 6 with video, in which the officials tried to remove an alligator from the front door of a house.

The video shows how the alligator quickly increases his head at one point, turns backwards and growls when the officers – one of whom can be seen with a rake to extend their reach – re -evaluated the situation.

“Well, he is now going in the wrong way,” an officer can be heard.

The viewer said that the officials were finally able to move the unwanted guest to a retention pond.

“These young police officers were brave. They were definitely able to use a trapper or have better equipment. I am sure that they encounter a lot, but they did a great job,” said the viewer in an e -mail.

The viewer informed News 6 that the officials carried out a routine passage when they saw the crooks on the front door of the home. The gator was still in the retention pond a few hours later, the viewer said and added that she intended to notify the local Hoa.

News 6 has contacted the Sanford police to get more information.
