Eerie moment cops find missing elderly woman with Alzheimer's in swamp in gator-infested Tampa

Florida police rescued a missing elderly woman who wandered off into gator-infested swamp.

Hillsborough County Sheriff's deputies responded to calls for help finding the woman with Alzheimer's around 2 a.m. on Saturday.

They used infrared cameras and aviation to pinpoint her location in a wooded area east of her home on the 3400 block of Reynoldswood Drive.

Body camera footage shared by the department shows deputies approached the woman in the swamp, but she appeared confused and brushed them off.

'Ma'am come on, let's go. We've got to get you out of here. We're going to get you home ma'am,' an officer said.
