An aggressive 10ft alligator has been captured while creeping up on children in a local park.
With the assistance of police officers, a local trapper was called in to capture the large reptile, which weighed around 400lbs, in a city pond in St. Petersburg, Florida, US.
A St Petersburg Police Department spokesperson said: “Neighbours tell us it was getting too close to kids playing in the area and wasn’t afraid of people.
