Wink Instant justice

In Miami Dade county a guy breaking into a car on the miccosukee resort
and casino, He was spotted by police. He started running and his choice
for his getaway was by water!! He jumped in the retention pond and he
got away alright, The Tribal police divers found him the next day with
alligator bite marks across his chest, He was dead!! Talk about instant
justice, It was the first gator attack this year. Moral of the story don't
mess around on indian property and be suprised when brother gator bites
your a$$!! Or maybe Florida waterways are not the best getaway route
especially at night (night=feeding time)

My brother in law used to live in Boca Raton.

Shortly after moving into his home, he went outside to take a dip in his pool.

He stopped short. . . and didn't dive in.






There was a 7 ft. long gator in his pool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My B-I-L had a chain link fence around his pool when he first moved into his house.

After the 'gator incident', he had another fence and screen (looked like window screen) put around his patio area where the pool was.

We visited him in 2000 and I'd never seen (in person) a screened in area like that, before. The top of the area (ceiling) was also screened.
He claimed that a LOT of the houses down there had patio areas like that.
(I dunno???????????)

He said that the screen was because of mosquitos, etc.
(I'm sure that the chain link around the bottom of the screened in area wasn't for mosquitos, though!)

yeah there called screen enclosures, very popular here, my father has one. for insurance purposes if you have a pool, you have to have a 4ft fence completely surrounding property or a screened in enclosure.
