Man Charged With Assault After Throwing A Gator Into Wendy’s

A Florida man has been arrested and charged with assault after allegedly tossing an alligator into a Wendy’s drive-thru window according to WPTV reports:

A Jupiter man threw it through the restaurant’s drive-thru window, according to a Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission incident report.

It happened in October, but the suspect was just taken into custody by U.S. Marshals.

FWC officials say 23-year-old Joshua James pulled up for his order and after a server handed over a drink and turned around James reached into the back of his truck and tossed the 3-and-a-half foot gator through the drive-thru window.

The incident report showed a picture of the gator inside the restaurant.

James faces charges of aggravated assault and unlawful possession and transportation of an alligator.

The alligator was later released in a nearby canal.
