Alligator found in Hollister home

Law enforcement officials made some strange finds recently while conducting the search of a home.

Hollister Police officers were assisting the Department of Fish and Wildlife and the United Narcotic Enforcement team in executing a search warrant, which involved the possesion of restricted species.

Inside the home, they found a five-foot alligator, a ferret, and a small pot grow.

The animals were taken to a permitted facility and the plants taken as evidence.

The suspect was not home at the time of the search.
