Alligator 911 Call

Polk County (Fla.) officials have released the logging recorder tape of a man who was attacked by a 12-foot alligator, and who was rescued by three sheriff’s deputies who jumped into the water to battle the animal. The man was seriously injured, losing an arm, breaking a leg and suffering puncture wounds. ”A gator’s got me! A gator’s got me!” the man yelled on the phone to a dispatcher. The calltaker told the man to punch the alligator in the snout. ”Too big!” the man gasped. Read the story and listen to the call here.
