Thanks to Jeff Meyerson for this gator sighting news.
Alligator sighting in Ossining draws DEC: "OSSINING - An alligator in Ossining?
Wildlife experts from the state Department of Environmental Conservation were headed to the scene, expected to arrive about 3 p.m.
That's after a Consolidated Edison worker called police about 11 a.m. today after reportedly seeing the head of a 3-foot gator poking out of a private pond off Somerstown Road.
'He was sitting beside a tree and he ran into the water,' said Aaron McDuffie, a flagger. 'They (other workers) didn't want to believe me at first, this being Westchester, but they walked over and saw him in the water.'
He said even he's in disbelief.
'With the cold climate, to see an alligator in the water? I didn't want to believe it when I first saw it.'"
