Alligator caught in Bryan County

BRYAN COUNTY, OK-- It was a wild night for some Bryan County law enforcement officers.

Just after 8pm, Wednesday, the sheriff's office received a call about an alligator in someone's front yard, in the Platter Flats area.

Witnesses say the homeowner pinned down the 33 inch gator with a fishing net until deputies arrived and taped its mouth shut.

The gator was turned over to Oklahoma Wildlife.

No word on where it has been taken.
