Rare Alligator Gar Fish Found Dead In Radnor Township Pond
RADNOR TOWNSHIP, PA (CBS) -- Radnor Township police say a rare Alligator Gar fish was found dead in a local pond this week. The fish is commonly found in the Gulf of Mexico.
Police say the fish was found dead by a township resident in the pond at Fenimore Park.
Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission officials say the fish could not sustain living in such cold water. The fish was turned over to them for educational purposes, police say.

There is no word on how the fish got in the pond.
