Late-night runs to WalMart are always guaranteed to be interesting - especially when an 8-foot long alligator shows up for a midnight run.
The alligator was spotted in the Aransas Pass store's parking lot just before 6 a.m. on Thursday, walking back to the pond police in Aransas Pass told the Corpus Christi Caller-Times.
In a video posted to the Aransas Pass Police Department's Facebook page, headlights from a nearby vehicle light the scene as two men hold onto the gator while a third officer wraps tape around the animal's jaw.
No injuries were reported from the incident. The video has since been viewed nearly 90,000 times and shared more than 1,200 times.
