WATCH OUT: Alligator attacks sanitation van driving through Florida floodwaters

NORTH FORT MYERS, Fla. — Sanitation workers were in for a scary surprise while driving in North Fort Myers, Florida early on Thursday morning.

As sanitation workers drove through the flooded streets, they were startled when an alligator leaped from the water and attacked their van.

“That was a big-a-- alligator that just bit our tire,” a stunned Dave Rieser told the driver of the van. “Wait ‘til we go back to this video. I hope I got it.”
