On June 21, Jiang'an branch of Wuhan Public Security Bureau in Hubei Province captured the 1.5-meter-long crocodile after receiving a public alarm. At noon on June 21, a wechat screenshot was circulated in the circle of friends, saying that the crocodile escaped from Wuhan Zoo and had fled to Wangjiawan, Hanyang. In response to rumors of crocodiles escaping, Wuhan Zoo said through an official microblog bulletin that the crocodiles did not escape. Where on earth did this crocodile come from? Where is the crocodile now?
In the afternoon of that day, a reporter learned from Jiangan branch of Wuhan Public Security Bureau that the police did capture a crocodile that morning.
According to the police of the Bureau, at 9:10 am on the 21st, the Danchi police station of Jiang'an Branch received an alarm from the masses, saying that an alligator was found in the Dijiao meat joint factory of Jiang'an District and asked to be cleared of danger. After receiving the alarm, Zhang Wei, deputy director of Danshui police station, led police Liu Mingzhi and auxiliary police Wang Lei to the scene with arrest tools. After arriving at the scene, the police found a crocodile with a length of 1.5 meters crawling on the roadside. The police were worried that the crocodile would bite passers-by and immediately evacuate the crowd. Then Zhang Wei led his colleagues to arrest the crocodile with tools.

The police said it was not clear where the crocodile came from. Because the meat factory was near the river, the crocodile may have swam along the river, but it certainly would not be the crocodile from Wuhan Zoo because it was too far away.
At 3:00 p.m., in response to online rumors, the Wuhan Zoo announced through its official micro blog that five Nile crocodiles in the park had not been lost, and that these crocodiles were 2.5 meters in size and 3 meters in size. They were not delicate crocodiles outside.
