JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — An alligator slowed traffic on I-295 in Jacksonville on Sunday.
The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office said they responded to a call about a wandering alligator on the northbound side of I-295.
When they arrived, deputies helped direct traffic.
Dash cam video from a driver showed authorities capturing the reportedly 7-foot long reptile.
The animal appeared to be resting against the concrete median barrier of the interstate.
