Rick Sheridan was working in his garage when he heard gunshots. He went around the back of his house to a pond, where he saw three police officers. The three officers had spotted the gator and were lined up on the bank, shooting at the large reptile. ....................

"Gawley Jethrow, take a look at that big gator over there. I didn't know they lived as far north as Mizzura. We better bust a few caps in it so it don't hurt nobody."
