An alligator is a long way from the swamps where the reptiles are often found after it was reportedly spotted in a body of water in a neighborhood near Cumming on Tuesday. The gator was located in a retention pond in the Stonehaven Pointe subdivision off Piney Grove Road, according to multiple sources. Lew Benedict, an Alpharetta resident whose nanny lives in the neighborhood, said the woman’s neighbor spotted two gators, though only one has been confirmed sighted.
