Early this morning, #YourTampaPD officers wrangled up a gator 🐊 who was roaming the streets near W. Kathleen St and N. Howard Ave. No alligators (or officers) were injured in this “jaw-dropping” video. The growling gator was taken for a ride by our partners from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to find a more suitable home.
