NORTH LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- It's no April Fool's Day joke. An alligator perched on the side of the road caused traffic delays during the Tuesday morning rush hour in North Lauderdale.
The 9 1/2-foot gator was hanging out on the right side of southbound U.S. Highway 441 near the overpass to Florida's Turnpike.
Construction worker Jimmy Sewell was at a job site nearby when he noticed the gator. Sewell said he stopped some children on their bicycles from getting too close to the gator while a co-worker dialed 911.
Hoping to "get lucky"
