Gator Loose In Breaux Bridge, Locals Detain It [PHOTOS]
You don't see this every day unless if you're in Breaux Bridge.
These photos were submitted to me this morning and you can see a HUGE ALIGATOR in someone's yard.
According to the person who submitted these photos, local authorities would not respond to this "disturbance," and they had to contact the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries.
The only problem is the closest agent is hours away, thus locals had to do something to detain this unwanted guest.
As you can see in the photos below, someone tied the gator to a pole in an effort to detain it until authorities arrive.
We're glad to report that no one was injured here, nor was the gator. Too close for comfort?
