PORT ORANGE, Fla. — “David Havenner, 41, was scheduled for a bond hearing Saturday in Volusia County; he was held overnight Friday at the county’s Branch Jail on misdemeanor charges of battery and possession of an alligator, officials said. Sheriff’s officials said Havenner was keeping the gator in his bathtub and swung it at his girlfriend, Nancy Monico, 39, during an argument Friday morning… Monico told investigators that Havenner beat her with his fists, then grabbed the gator and swung it at her as she tried to escape. The gator struck Monico at least once, after which time Havenner threw empty beer bottles at her and then kicked her out of their mobile home, she told investigators.”
