The West Palm Beach Police Department tweeted photos showing the large gator that parked itself in the middle of the northbound lanes of Australian Avenue.
The department said the road was temporarily closed while a Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission trapper was summoned to deal with the "wayward jaywalker."
A follow-up tweet showed the alligator being tied up by the trapper at the side of the road.
