The alligator came for some pastries. In North Carolina, a three-foot-long baby alligator entered a Bagel Doc Express. The store was closed, but the back door was wide open. The reptile went through the kitchen to the counter, where it encountered the owner. His response appears in the video. The police and animal rights activists took the baby, and the store published a post: "The rumors about our bagels have reached the swamp."
