Man stabs alligator to rescue dog
A man jumped in a pond and stabbed a six-foot long alligator in the eye with a pocket-knife to force it to release his dog from its jaws.
Matthew Goff, 29, said he was walking Sugar, a tan-coloured bloodhound/Shar-Pei mix, in a Gainesville, Florida, park when the dog wandered to the edge of the pond and the alligator grabbed its head.
