Soda-Guzzling Gator Breaks Into Florida Garage: Report

NAPLES, FL — An alligator surprised a Naples couple when it broke into their garage Wednesday night and ruined supplies purchased for an upcoming birthday party.

The husband and wife — Karyn and Jamie Dobson, who recently relocated to Florida from Chicago — were watching TV when they heard a loud crash from the garage.

“I open the garage door about a quarter way, peek my head in, and there’s the alligator,” Jamie told Wink News. “Quickly close the door, ‘Karyn, we have an alligator in our garage,’ something from the Midwest I really haven’t experienced before.”
