A boy of seven has been eaten alive by a crocodile while playing with
his father in the Barra Santa Ana region of Mexico.It was an ordinary
day, the father and his 7-year-old son were playing with a balloon when
suddenly a wind carried it to the river bank. Manuel rushed to catch it
up and at this very moment the killer reptile leaped from the water and
sunk his teeth in the child’s neck.see photo after the break:

The father and those who saw the attack immediately ran to help the boy
but it was too late, the beast dragged him under water and most likely
ate him alive. Despite the immediate rescue efforts of military, civil
protection groups and fishermen, neither Manuel’s remains nor the
crocodile were found.
Locals rushed to help the dying boy but it was too late |
While speaking to journalists, the grieving father blamed city officials
that did not warn about the possibilty of crocodile attacks. He said:
“We had come to visit relatives when we decided to go for a walk and
play with the balloon. When it blew down to the shore I wasn’t worried
as no one had told me there were crocodiles around.”
The crocodile which killed and ate the child is the eighth deadly attack in this region |
