Girl Scouts swim away from charging alligator
HUNTSVILLE, Texas (KPRC) - A Texas Girl Scout group may need to add a new badge to their sashes: The ability to escape an alligator.
It happened as the Spring-area troop took an overnight camping trip to Huntsville State Park.
“This is an emergency here! The alligator, it’s in the water - what the (bleep),” someone says on phone video of the incident.
The emergency at the park’s swimming area caused panic and chaos just minutes after Girl Scout Troop 114204 jumped in.
The gator was estimated to be 14 feet long!
