The alligator was found between Lake Istapoka and Pinedale estates...near a house. Game Wardens were forced to shoot the alligator- guess he wouldn't cooperate! Jayne and Don Hobkirk could hear the bellowing in the night. Their neighbors had been telling them that they had seen a mammoth alligator in the Lake that runs behind their house, but they dismissed the stories as being exaggerations. "I didn't believe it", Don Hobkirk said. Friday they realized the stories were, if anything, understat ed. Florida Game and Parks game wardens had to shoot the beast...
