The alligator was “dispatched” during the “On Patrol Live” broadcast Saturday night.

Yeah, I was watching that "professional" come out to take care of the gator. What an asshole he was. "turn off that light - I can't work in the light" - Which made me think he was going to trap and transport the gator, but he had some kind of stick (reminded me of a cattle prod) that he used to kill the gator.
Hell, you could have killed him that way with or without the light
took him a couple of tries, guess he was pissed that he had to get out of bed.
If they were going to euthanize the gator anyway, it would have been more merciful to have the cop shoot it in the head.....

That stick was a bang stick that fires a shotgun shell into the gator's head. You hold the end of the bang stick right by the gator's head. One shot. Then you must reload.

Bang Stick w/Power Head: .410 shotgun (spring type) https://huntinglight.com/Bang-Stick-with-Power-Head-410-spring type Global web icon The GATOR PRO .410 Shotgun Bangstick is an excellent choice for Gator hunting. You also might find the shotgun shells more available and affordable. The chamber can hold up to 3" length ammo. We highly recommend using .410 slugs only, or 45 Long Colt pistol ammo can also be used.
