KENOSHA, Wis. -- One week after a baby alligator was found swimming in a Wisconsin lake just southwest of Green Bay, another alligator was found roaming around, this time in Kenosha.
"Our dispatchers gave the call out, you know, 'Respond to an alligator in the roadway at 22nd Avenue and 24th Street.' And you could hear the chuckle in the voice from the dispatchers," Kenosha Lt. Joseph Nosalik said.
But even though it sounded like a prank, indeed an alligator was found ambling around.
"Turns out some kids enjoying summertime outside playing
spotted this alligator in the street, were playing too close to the street and mom yells at him, 'Get away from the street,'" Nosalik said. "'But mom, there's an alligator here!' Sure enough, there's an alligator in the road."
Now back with its owner, the alligator was able to escape from a backyard where it was spending the day in a kiddie pool. ..................................................
