Suspects who dumped an alligator inside Florida Wawa sought
LAKEWOOD RANCH, Fla. – Florida authorities are searching for two suspects after an injured alligator was dumped in a Wawa store.
The Bradenton Herald quotes Manatee County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Dave Bristow as saying the department was alerted to the alligator around 2:30 a.m. Friday. Bristow says the department was told two people had dropped off a three-foot (1-meter) alligator at the Lakewood Ranch convenience store.
Deputies alerted the Fish and Wildlife Commission, which sent a trapper who removed the gator.
