'Aggressive' 11-foot alligator breaks into Florida home

An 11-foot alligator broke into a Florida house and stunned its human inhabitants when they woke up Friday morning to be greeted by the massive reptile, police said.

The unwanted overnight visitor broke through low windows at the home in the Eagles Landing neighborhood and broke four bottles of wine, homeowners told NBC affiliate WFLA.

Clearwater police spokeswoman Joelle Castelli called the alligator "aggressive."
