This Week in Weird: Nude Man Stalks Gator

Friday March 7, 2008

This week we found evidence of what could be the first human-reptile romance -- or at least an unhealthy obsession.

Two years ago, police in Polk County, Fla., rescued Adrian Apgar from the jaws of an alligator. Now, he's been arrested after officers spotted him naked and allegedly stalking another gator.

Police found Apgar stark naked in a swampy area walking toward the alligator. "He told deputies that he knew he was gambling with his life," Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd told a local TV station.

Apgar was hardly the only person caught in a compromising position this week. Here's a look at this week's top weird news stories:
