WLWT News Surveillance cameras captured the moment a Florida man rushed into a pond to rescue his puppy from the jaws of an alligator.

Richard Wilbanks said he followed his instincts when he saw his dog, Gunner, in the gator’s grip.

The entire incident was caught on camera.

“Fortunately, I was in a position that I was able to save Gunner’s life,” Wilbanks said.
