But the officers didn’t stop there. In a series of hashtags, the police in Aransas Pass joked that the gator, who stopped by for a #LateNightThnack, had asked for no onions, a toasted bun and picante sauce but #DidntEvenGetHisFoodToGo.

Police also confirmed that officials with Texas Parks and Wildlife eventually removed and relocated the reptile, though they didn’t specify exactly where the alligator was transported.

That said, one can only hope the Aransas Pass PD didn’t have it delivered to the McDonald’s directly across the street, just so they could keep cracking jokes about “quarter-pounders with teeth” or something.
