An unexpected visitor or rather creepy, a man in Florida was bitten on the leg by an alligator who was waiting at the front door.

The Daytona Beach resident Scot Hollingsworth was watching TV when he heard a bump at the door.

“I jumped up and headed over and opened the door, stepped out while trying to reach the lights and barely got out the door and got my leg clamped on and (it) started shaking really violently,” he was quoted by WKMG.

He was taken to the hospital with no major injuries from the 9-foot reptile.

“I suspect I surprised the alligator as much as he surprised me,” the 56-year-old said. The incident happened on March 4.
