"I was in my bedroom and I heard a noise. And I walked in and he was in the kitchen. Shock. How about that? But I'm not a screamer, so I just went 'Oh my God' and I ran to the telephone," Frosti said.


Frosti called 911 from her bedroom, where a recording documented her surprise.


"There's an alligator in my kitchen," she told an operator. "It's huge."
