A pet alligator missing since September was caught this weekend.

Kiski Township Police say that after a year of gator issues, they finally caught the final one.

Neo was caught by cyclists Friday along the Roaring Run Trail. He was taken into police custody by Officer Pete “Gator” Forestieri.

He's now with Nate's Reptile Rescue in South Park.

Neo needs to put on some weight and receive treatment for an eye injury.

Police say the gator will eventually be transferred to Florida, “where he can thrive and prosper.”
