ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- A Florida teenager has claimed his baggy pants saved him from an alligator attack.
Kendrick Williams said he was walking home from work Tuesday night and cut through an apartment complex with a large pond when he encountered the alligator.
“I heard the hiss and then looked down, and I saw the alligator on the ground,” Williams said.
The alligator took a bite out of the teen's pants.
