HOT SPRINGS, AR -- Police in Hot Springs, Arkansas, were on the hunt for two people who broke into an alligator farm recently and stole more than a dozen gators.

The manager says the thieves broke down the doors to one of the exhibits, grabbed several alligators and stuffed them into bags. Thirteen in all were stolen.

Most of them were less than a year old, but one of them was seven years old and three feet long.

The manager is concerned the thieves will get scared and throw the gators out somewhere.
