First, there’s a “tropical disturbance” in the Gulf, which has turned the sky a color that falls halfway between “angry” and “Surrender Dorothy”. And now, of course, there’s this:
An alligator that somehow got into the eastbound left lane of Interstate 10 on the Bonne Carre Spillway has been hit by a vehicle and is slowing traffic to a crawl, state police said.
The alligator is still alive and a nuisance officer from St. Charles Parish has been dispatched to try and remove the animal, a Louisiana State Police spokesman said.
Helllllooooo, Tuesday!
