A 7-foot-6 alligator cracked the windshield of a trapper's SUV in Rosenberg Sunday morning after being caught the night before in Fulshear, about 40 miles west of Houston.
The adolescent male — blind in one eye from an apparent BB gun injury — was in the middle of a Fulshear road around 9 p.m. Saturday night when alligator trapper Christy Kroboth picked it up.

As she typically does after catching an alligator at night, Kroboth taped a towel around the alligator's eyes and left it overnight in the back of her small SUV with the windows down, she said.
When Kroboth came to check on the alligator around 9 a.m., she found her windshield broken in two places and the alligator wedged between the windshield and steering wheel, having climbed out of the trunk.
"I had to just go in my car and really slowly — at the alligator's pace — try to work him out," Kroboth said. "Once he was unstuck, we were able to just kind of coax him out of the car."
Kroboth dropped the alligator off at a farm in El Campo, about 40 miles southwest of Rosenberg, late Sunday morning.
"It was quite a sight this morning," Kroboth said. But, she added, "You can't be mad at him. He's an alligator."
