PlayOne heck of a gator-crasher

A Florida woman got the fright of her life when she found an eight-foot alligator in her kitchen.
Sandra Frosti, 69, came across the uninvited guest at her home in Oldsmar, just north of Tampa.
She said: "I heard a noise from the kitchen, and was much too loud to have been my cat, so I went to check it out. Much to my surprise, a very large alligator was in my kitchen."
Ms Frosti phoned the police, who called in a wildlife expert to remove the 200 pound reptile.
It's thought the gator came from a nearby pond, and across Ms Frosti's back lawn before breaking in through a screen door.
"He looked awfully well fed. The police seem to think he was checking out my cat," Ms Frosti said.
