Scott Pearson found out this week that Florida retirement living isn't all sunshine and shuffleboard — you also have to watch out for alligator attacks. Pearson and his wife Andrea helped save a Florida man from an alligator at the Cypress Lakes Retirement Community in Lakeland near Tampa, on Monday. (WFLA/NBC)That's when Pearson, an Ottawa native who now lives in Stoney Creek, looked across the water and saw an almost three-and-a-half metre long alligator lunge at a man from the shoreline. Scott Pearson says he and his wife Andrea were shocked when they saw the alligator. Pearson says it was an experience he won't soon forget — especially any time he's walking near a body of water down south.
