A massive alligator was caught Friday carrying the lifeless body of a Floridian down a canal.
A witness first spotted the mammoth reptile with its victim clenched between its jaws on a residential street in Largo, a small community just four miles south of Clearwater.
“I could tell there was a body in his mouth, so I started recording,” witness JaMarcus Bullard told Spectrum Bay News 9.Bullard, who was on his way to a job interview, alerted the Largo Fire Department, which was stationed just steps away from the gory scene.“A lot of my neighbors were out here and they’re the ones that told me about the gator,” area resident Jennifer Dean told the outlet.
At the scene, investigators were standing next to the bloodied gator, which appeared to be at least 10 feet in length.
