BETHLEHEM, Pa.
Bethlehem police say they captured a 3-foot-long alligator after a resident spotted it going over a waterfall.
Police say it took several rounds of hide-and-seek before they could remove the reptile Sunday from the Monocacy Creek.
They say the alligator hid in deep water beneath the falls several times before Officer Eric Yeakel captured it.
A local reptile expert confirmed it was an alligator and took it to a reptile store for treatment.
