Gators loose near downtown Indy
Via the Indianapolis Star…
Animal control and law enforcement officials were on the hunt today for two alligators spotted in the White River near downtown.
Two fishermen reported seeing the alligators, one estimated at 10-12 feet and another about two feet long, south of the bridge over West Washington Street.
The Indianapolis Zoo has no report of any missing creatures.
Late this afternoon Adam Garrett, public information officer for Animal Care and Control said officers from the Department of Natural Resources, Indianapolis Police Department and Capitol Police were monitoring the larger alligator on an island in the middle of the river. But they later realized what they were monitoring was just a log.
The gators, at last report, were still at large.
