United Press International - NewsTrack - Quirks - Gator vs. truck crash called a draw
TAMPA, Fla., July 7 (UPI) -- Two terrified Florida women holed up inside their truck for half an hour after they hit a 10-foot alligator that became stuck under their vehicle.

Jennifer Maldonado and Aimee Baker opened the doors of their vehicle after the collision on U.S. 98 set off their air bag; however, they spotted the silhouette of a thrashing tail from underneath and immediately retreated back inside and called 911, The Tampa Tribune reported Saturday.

"It was grunting and roaring and shaking the whole truck," Maldonado said. "I was hysterical."
