A crocodile dragged underwater and tore a man who ignored the “No Swimming Sign and violated the ban on swimming in the Mexican lagoon

In Mexico, a crocodile tore a man who violated the ban on swimming in the Mexican lagoon. This was reported by the local media.

A man in his 50s and 60s ignored the swimming sign, undressed and entered the water.

Seconds later, the three-metre crocodile chased the swimmer, grabbed him and dragged him to the depths. The video shows screams posted on the social network.

Local emergency personnel such as the Red Cross, Civil Protection and Firefighters went to the scene of the incident and entered the lagoon with boats to try to rescue the victim, who had injuries to the neck, arm and chest. Once on land, the troops could only certify his death.

The name of the deceased has not been established. Presumably, it was a homeless man who lived in the region.

Earlier it was reported that in League City, Texas, a man miraculously saved his daughter from the attack of a three-meter alligator.

It was also reported that in India, a crocodile killed a fisherman in front of his wife. The wife tried to save her husband, but she did not have enough strength.
