Sick alligator found guarding pot stash

(London Daily Mail) Officers performing a routine probation check on a northern California man yesterday were shocked to find that he had some 34 pounds of marijuana in his rented house.

But they were more startled to discover the animal guarding it – a five-foot alligator named Mr Teeth.

The Alameda County Sheriff’s deputies arrested Assif Mayar, 32, and took his illegal pet to the Oakland Zoo.
