Police officers wrestle a nine-foot alligator into submission

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — Florida police won their match against an alligator that was spotted near a Tampa neighborhood.

It all began when one officer attempted to lasso the large reptile’s snout, but they were attacked.

Both officers then sat on top of the gator and were eventually able to gain control.

A trapper helped them carry the gator safely into a van.

There hasn’t been any word on what was done with it from there.
