A woman named Erin Weaver took a picture of the alligator and the images have sparked concern for the reptiles in the area.

Weaver told ABC13, "He kind of turned and came right towards me, and he swam right over here along the rocks here, and he sat there. And it was actually a knife—it looked like a steak knife—sticking out of his head." She also added that it was very close to his eye.
