Flooded-Out Gator Wrangled From Indian River County Driveway, Set Free Again

Heavy flooding in Indian River County did more than swamp roads this week — it pushed an alligator straight out of its habitat and onto a homeowner's driveway.

A Vero Beach bar that closed Nov. 4 after 19 years in business will reopen with a new name and concept, but the owners want to keep it a secret for now, they told TCPalm.

The Novaks manage the new rodeo grounds west of Interstate 95 for owners John and Shelley Englehart. Angela was
