Victor Ravis, 40, a suspected drunk driver ran into a swamp to get away from the police but instead got bitten by the friendly neighbourhood alligator. The incident happened in Louisiana this week, near the Interstate 10 and Interstate 310 in St. Charles Parish, the area is known for its swampy wetlands and alligator population.

Ravis made a run for it not just once, but twice and despite being in a drunken stupor Ravis managed to jump from an elevated highway into marshland. He then survived an alligator attack and continued his escape attempt before law enforcement finally caught him with the help of a drone.
