FORT MYERS, Fla. -- The Florida Highway Patrol says a pig is responsible for causing a series of car accidents in Collier County and injuring nearly a dozen people.
    
An FHP report says 24-year-old Gabriela Resendiz struck a pig Saturday night that was in the middle of the road. Several other cars collided with her vehicle, injuring nearly a dozen other drivers and passengers.
    
Resendiz was taken to the hospital with serious injuries. Two others - including an infant - also received serious injuries. The FHP report says the other injuries were minor.
    
Charges were not immediately filed. FHP has not said where the pig came from.
