A Louisiana couple's evening took a wild turn when an alligator made its way onto their enclosed porch and waited for a dramatic showdown with police and a gator handler.
Bobby and Susan McKenzie heard a strange noise, so they walked to the porch to investigate and found that the screen door was torn. Then they saw a tail that was attached to a massive nine-foot alligator just sitting there. The couple quickly called for help from the sheriff's office and a neighbor who raises alligators.
The sheriff's office, along with the gator handler, captured the reptile and eventually released it into a nearby river, but the monster didn't go peacefully. It put up a fight and tossed patio furniture all over the porch. The sheriff's office shared a video of the encounter on social media, and had a little fun with it by adding some appropriate music.
