Man Who Eluded Police Later Arrested After Getting Bit by Alligator

A man who eluded police is later arrested after getting bit by an alligator.

Who needs a K-9 dog when an alligator can easily do the job?

A male suspect in Florida was pulled over by officers for a lane violation, but the 20-year-old man jumped out of the car and fled the scene, successfully evading police…...temporarily at least.

Several hours later, the male found himself in a hospital bed after an alligator bit him near a water treatment plant, only a few miles away from his abandoned vehicle. Cops soon caught up with the suspect and arrested him at the medical facility.

The male was charged with evading police and driving without a license.

Here’s another unlikely arrest. Recently, a college student, 21-year-old Shane Allen was busted for allegedly having prescription pills, marijuana and an alligator in his vehicle. Cops first discovered him completely passed out in his Jeep.

On top of facing drug charges, he may also have to pay fines for possessing the nearly 5-foot long alligator, which was found caged in the back seat of his vehicle. Police believed Allen may have planned on bringing the reptile on campus for a presentation.
