An alligator reportedly chased several people through a Wendy’s parking lot in Florida. Fortunately, authorities were reportedly able to get the animal under control before anyone was hurt.

The incident occurred in Lehigh Acres, Florida, the New York Post reports. The six-foot-long gator was likely just trying to move from one body of water to another when it entered the parking lot.

According to the local sheriff’s department, the animal chased several pedestrians in the Wendy’s parking lot, however.

The Sheriff’s Twitter account also posted several photos of the large animal, including one that shows officials wrangling the gator from behind. One worker can be seen sitting on the gator’s back, holding its mouth shut while several other officials hold the animal still with capture rods.
