CRYSTAL RIVER, Fla. (WFLA) – An alligator tried to be a big fish in a small pond, but ended up getting swallowed by a big swimming pool.
Citrus County Deputy/Field Training Officer Dale Johnson “arrested” the little guy at the Meadowcrest community pool on Thursday.
Johnson said the 3-feet alligator was mean, but he finally snagged him out of the water after a few minutes.
Deputy Leyva was also on hand to help wrangle the alligator and put tape safely around his mouth.
The gator was turned over to FWC.
