Hum Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 EUSTIS, FL (AP) -- Authorities say a small alligator climbed through the porch door of a house north of Orlando and then bit the homeowner's arm when it was forced out. The 2-foot-long alligator wandered onto James Gaff's canal-front property in Lake County on Sunday. Gaff tried to remove the gator, which then latched onto his right forearm. :| A spokeswoman for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission says Gaff's wife, Elaine, pried the gator off using a broom handle and the couple threw the reptile into the water behind their home. The 52-year-old Gaff was treated at a hospital for minor cuts and scrapes. from: Orlando Sentinel, http://www.orlandosentinel.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
