And finally tonight: A Minnesota family's Fourth of July backyard barbecue drew an interesting guest this weekend... A 3-foot alligator.Linda Savage was walking in her yard in Eagan when spotted the gator in a pond.At first, her family didn't quite believe her.But then everyone got a closer look and saw for themselves.Police were called to take care of the alligator.The Minnesota DNR says that someone was probably keeping the gator as a pet, then got tired of it and released it into the pond.Officials say it's legal to have an alligator with a permit.But it's not legal to release it into the wild.
