Wesley Chapel family says dog survived alligator attack in their backyard
TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — A family in Wesley Chapel is traumatized after their rescue dog was attacked by an alligator in their backyard. A video shows Zeus, a German Shepherd, standing on a leash with a gator lurking just beyond the fence, a chilling moment the family now views as a warning. 'We have a doggy door, and Zeus will go in and out of it whenever he wants,' said Susan Alkhatib. 'We have it covered right now because of what happened.' 4 dolphins from Florida park involved in criminal investigation moved to Clearwater Marine Aquarium Earlier this week, Zeus stepped outside like any other night, only this time, an alligator was waiting. 'All of a sudden, I couldn't hear him anymore,' one family member recalled. 'My dad came in frantic. I'd never seen him like that. He said, 'The alligator just took Zeus.'' Alkhatib and her family ran outside with flashlights and caught a glimpse of Zeus struggling in the pond with the gator still latched onto him. 'The alligator had just let go of Zeus,' Alkhatib said. 'We started yelling at him to come toward us. When he got closer, he got tired. So we had to kind of go into the pond a little bit to get him.' While News Channel 8 was interviewing the family, a gator emerged from the water again before slipping back in. 'I have a 7-year-old sister,' said one family member. 'And I just think, if she was at the fence, would he have done the same thing to her?' Zeus miraculously survived the attack. He suffered a fractured and displaced jaw, along with multiple puncture wounds around his neck. 'The vet said it looked like his whole head was in the gator's mouth,' said Alkhatib. 'Even he said, 'I don't know how he survived.'' 'I honestly can't believe he is alive,' Alkhatib said. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has sent out trappers, but so far, they have not been able to capture the gator. Zeus is now recovering from several surgeries. The family has started a GoFundMe to help pay for his veterinary bills. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Teen driving 132 mph told officers he was going to a job interview, police say
A Connecticut man who was caught by police driving at 132 miles per hour told officials his speeding was not due to a joyride, but instead, because he was running late to a job interview, police said. In a press release from the Connecticut State Police, officials said 19-year-old Azmir Djurkovic was caught speeding while state troopers were conducting 'motor vehicle enforcement' in the town of Cromwell. During their shift, police saw a Mercedes E300 traveling "faster than the flow of traffic," the release said. A speed radar detected the car going at 132 miles per hour, more than two times the Connecticut default speed limit on interstates, which is 65 miles per hour. But the driver was not caught immediately. Police said when a trooper tried to execute a traffic stop with lights and sirens, the driver sped off and made 'unsafe lane changes.' Instead of chasing after Djurkovic, state police contacted the registered owner of the vehicle, who said Djurkovic was driving at the time. "Troopers obtained a phone number for Djurkovic, who admitted to driving and stated he did not stop because he was late for a job interview," state police said. Djurkovic turned himself in to officials, where he was arrested and now faces multiple charges, including reckless driving, engaging police in a pursuit and reckless endangerment. According to the press release, Djurkovic was released on a $2,500 bond and set to make his next court appearance on June 17. USA TODAY was not able to immediately find an attorney representing Djurkovic at this time. Fernando Cervantes Jr. is a trending news reporter for USA TODAY.
