#2 I bicycle past a lot of canals and lakes here where gators are to be expected. I should probably carry while riding but I imagine shooting a gator is a bigger legal hassle than shooting a person anyway. Lots of people don't know gators can do 35 mph for short bursts (not just those sudden lunges to get a poodle or dachshund that gets too close)

#3 Witnesses at the scene verified that it was the same animal that bit the woman.

Did they have a sketch artist draw a composite or did they do a police lineup?
