A Florida mom made a frantic call with the help of a 911 dispatcher because her teenage daughter was stuck in a tree for half an hour with piping alligators underneath.
"My daughter is stuck in a tree and there are gators around her," mother said on 911. "We can not take her out."
The close encounter with the alligators took place around 3 pm Friday along Forest Service Road near Alexander Springs in Altoona, according to a report from the Lake County Sheriff's Office.
The teenage mother told the dispatcher that her daughter "went into the tree to get out of the water" and hung on her limbs for several minutes .
"Oh my god, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up," the mother said to the dispatcher. "Oh, my god, my daughter is going to be [sic] dead."

"My presence did not scare the alligator and he began to encroach on my area," writes Blackmon in the report.
He then stated that he was targeting his Bushmaster AR-15 rifle, fired a deadly .223 round "killing the alligator," according to the report.
A local marine biologist was summoned to assess the cause of death, the report says.
