BILOXI, MS (WLOX) - Although Biloxi Beach is welcome to visitors from near and far, a four-legged beachgoer recently got the boot.
Biloxi Police Officer Bryan Wallace came face-to-face with a four-foot alligator Friday afternoon. According to the City of Biloxi, someone brought the animal the shoreline.
Wallace, who is a former Department of Marine Resources officer, says the gator will be relocated to the wild.
