AGITATED GATOR TAKES A BITE OUT OF LOCAL FARM WORKER

One didn’t see the other, until it was too late. But fortunately for the local pepper farm worker, the bite taken out of his leg by an angry gator is not life threatening. The experience however, is a different story.

The worker was clearly focused on his farm work when an agitated gator lurking in the field along 96th Street in Palm City lunged and grabbed hold of the man. The gator grabbed the side of the workers thigh causing a significant injury with puncture wounds. The victim did break free and was able to get away.

The 9-foot, 4-inch gator was located and removed from the area. The worker was taken to the hospital where he is getting treated for the gator bite.
