Police shoots at fake concrete alligator
In Independence, Mo., this week police officers over did it, pulling out their service weapon and shooting dead an alligator, or at least as croaked as a concrete croc can get.
Rick Sheridan, the owner of the lawn ornament heard gunfire while working in his garage. When he went to see what was going on he found several police officers with their weapons drawn.
The life-like gator had actually been put in place, the owner said, to scare off trespassers because "No Trespassing" signs were not doing the trick.
The police department later apologized.
