2 alligators seized when police raid south NJ home
September 17, 2011
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) - Atlantic City police made an unexpected discovery when they raided the home of a suspected drug dealer.
Two small alligators were found inside the Pennsylvania Avenue residence on Friday, along with a pound of marijuana and more than $2,600 in cash.
The alligators - each about 1½- to 2-feet-long - will be turned over to state wildlife officials, who will try to return them to their natural habitat.
Thirty-eight-year-old Kemyatta Johnson, who lives at the home, faces numerous drug and weapons charges. He was being held Saturday at the Atlantic County Jail on $100,000 full cash bail, and officials did not know if he had retained an attorney.

The story sounded a lot more exciting from the headline. Still, I'd guess a two-foot alligator could take off a finger... or five.
