Deputies in Florida wrangled a large alligator that was found wandering a Wendy’s parking lot on Wednesday, authorities said.
The gator was said to be "loitering" outside the fast-food restaurant on Commercial Way in Spring Hill, the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office announced.
Responding deputies requested help from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission to capture the gator.
Photos show the giant reptile appearing to resist officers’ efforts to take it into custody.
