Gator Chews on Florida Crackhead
A stupid crackhead in Florida decided to strip down to his birthday suit and go swimming in a Florida pond. A large gator grabbed hold of him and chewed on parts of both arms and was working on a leg when Sheriff’s Deputies dove in and rescued him.
From Reuters here:
Florida sheriff’s deputies jumped into a dark lake and pulled a naked man from the jaws of an alligator early on Wednesday, authorities said. The man lost his left arm and had a broken right arm and major injuries to his left leg, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said. He was hospitalized in critical condition.
After several people reported hearing screams for help from central Florida’s Lake Parker at about 4 a.m., deputies arrived to find the man in the alligator’s grasp, the sheriff said. Four deputies waded through waist-deep mud, wrestled the man free and pulled him about 40 yards (meters) back to shore to a waiting ambulance, Judd said.
“He was totally naked,” Judd said of the victim, identified as 45-year-old Adrian Apgar. “He admitted that he’d been smoking crack cocaine.”
A 12-foot alligator was later plucked from the lake, and wildlife officials said it was believed to be the one that attacked Apgar.
A Twelve Foot Gator is a huge animal. It could eat a deer. This crackhead is lucky that his screams woke the neighbors, or else he would have simply vanished off the planet.? One of the best writeups on this is at TBO here.
The largest alligator currently in captivity is just over 13 feet, only 16 inches larger than this huge gator. This animal weighed between 450 and 600 pounds
This is why i hate all people who do crack or dope. weed is one thing but doing a drug that makes me swim with alligators..no thanks.
Don’t people on Ecstacy usually get naked and want to rub on things? He said he was smoking crack, but maybe he was on something else too.
