7-Foot gator caught roaming Fla. school soccer field
PARKLAND, Fla. (AP) — Wildlife officials have captured a 7-foot alligator found roaming the soccer field at a South Florida elementary school.
A Broward Sheriff's sergeant said the gator was spotted Friday and was in a place where it would not have easily gotten back to nature on its own. A deputy lassoed the reptile's tile and the sergeant held the gators mouth closed while a wildlife official taped it together.
The Sun Sentinel (http://tinyurl.com/ngpr7j4 ) reports a trapper took custody of the alligator, which will be taken elsewhere or euthanized.
