April 22 (UPI) -- A Florida man had to leave his Easter dinner in a hurry so he could wrangle a large alligator into a trash can.
Animal trapper Mike Dragich, aka "The Blue Collar Brawler" on social media, said he was at Easter dinner with his family on Sunday evening when a call came in reporting a Jacksonville woman had spotted an alligator in her yard while letting her dog out.
A video of the confrontation shows Dragich, who was wearing a shorts, a tank top and no shoes, using a trash can to contain the alligator, which was estimated to be 7 or 8 feet long.
"Thankfully, no animals or people were injured," Dragich wrote on social media.
He said the gator had apparently climbed a fence into the woman's yard, as he couldn't find any other potential point of entry.
The video ends with the excited resident giving Dragich a high five.
