TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - October 27, 2010

Not 6 feet, 7 inches, tall -- but long.

Jenny Roca called 911 early yesterday when she heard someone or something at her door in Tampa, Florida.

It was an alligator.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has issued a permit for a trapper to get that gator.
