City of Oviedo – City Adminration’s Facebook page shared the video of the alligator. In the post’s caption, they added, “On May 5, a Stormwater crew was out at Lockwood Blvd near Riverside to investigate a series of potholes that have appeared in the roadway. The crew has a robot, which is a four-wheel robotic camera that can go into the pipes and investigate any anomalies under the roadway. They usually bring the robot out to inspect when there are potential roadway defects to see if any pipes have leaks, cracks, defects, etc., underground.”
They further added, “On Friday’s inspection, as you’ll see in the video, they came across a five-foot alligator! At first, they thought it was a toad, and in the video, you see two little glowing eyes until you get closer – but when it turned around, they saw the long tail of the alligator and followed it through the pipes! You can see in the video they got about 340 feet in before the robot got stuck on a little indentation, and the alligator meandered off.”

It looked like the pipe was running away from the pond. Good on the operator for giving it time and not panicking it.” A second shared, “Gators highway.” “How did he get in there?” asked a third.
