Just before 11 a.m. Friday, Bossier City announced that the Field of Dreams Park located at 4714 Hazel Jones Road was immediately closed after an approximately four-foot alligator was located at the park. The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries has been contacted to assist the city in the removal of the alligator. 'The safety of our citizens and park's visitors is a priority and we are taking the necessary steps to ensure there is no danger to the public,' said Mayor Tommy Chandler.
