Mosley was reported missing on Thursday after his 20-year mother, Pashun Jeffery, found dead in her apartment in St Petersburg, Florida.

According to the Police, she was stabbed multiple times.

The police chief Anthony Holloway, who confirmed the incident said he child’s father, Thomas Mosley, has since been arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder.

The alligator was shot and killed by a detective.

He was still in hospital on Friday but did not speak to detectives and requested a lawyer, according to police.
