A massive alligator was seen strolling along a Texas neighborhood earlier this week, scaring residents and prompting emergency personnel and wildlife services to detain the animal.
Texas Parks and Wildlife responded to the scene around 7:40 a.m. on Monday, when they found the 11-foot, 400-pound reptile meandering in the grass near a road in Katy, Texas, FOX 26 of Houston reported. The city is less than 30 miles west of Houston.
“This morning around 7.40 a.m. dispatch received calls that an alligator was walking along Peek Road about 50 or 60 yards south of Buffalo Bayou,” said Fort Bend County Precinct 1 Constable Chad Norvel, the Houston Chronicle reported. “He was caught by licensed trappers from Texas Parks and Wildlife and is being taken to a sanctuary in El Campo.”
According to the report, Bayou City Gator Savers also assisted in restraining the animal. The process was completed by 11:30 a.m. and the alligator was then lifted via a tow truck and relocated to Gator Country near Beaumont, the constable added.

Police discovered the bodies of three missing girls in a Texas pond on Saturday, hours after they had been reported missing.
The three girls, 9-year-old Zi’ariel Oliver, 8-year-old Amanda Hughes, and 5-year-old Temari Oliver were staying with a family friend while their mother was working. The friend reported the sisters missing at roughly 10 p.m. on Friday.
Police began searching the area and came across a pair of shoes sitting on the edge of a pond on a neighbor’s property. Investigators discovered the bodies of all three girls at the bottom at roughly 2 a.m. Saturday, according to the Cass County Sheriff’s Office.
Circumstances of the girls’ deaths are under investigation, but police have not announced a criminal inquiry. The sisters’ bodies have been sent for autopsy to determine the cause of death.

The law enforcement search included elements of the local police, fire department and game wardens. Authorities say they discovered footprints in the mud near where the shoes were found.
The girls’ mother, who remains unnamed, confirmed that the shoes belonged to one of her daughters.
Authorities have indicated the girls’ deaths may have been an accident.
“That is unknown, whether they were swimmers or not. None of them had life jackets on, so I don’t know how strong of swimmers they were or if were swimmers at all,” Lieutenant Game Warden Jason Jones told KTAL.
