Published in Weird News

(UPI) Firefighters were called to a Florida home to help remove an up-to-6-foot alligator a resident discovered swimming in their backyard pool.

Orange County Fire Rescue said a resident contacted authorities Tuesday morning about an alligator swimming in the pool behind their Orlando home.

Fire Rescue officials contacted a trapper, who responded to the home to wrangle the reptile out of the pool.

 

The alligator was dragged from the pool to a nearby grassy area, where the trapper taped its jaw shut and tied up its limbs for transport.

Fire Rescue officials said the gator was nicknamed "Gabby."
