Alligator Attack in Florida River | Honolulu News

Her boyfriend and friend pulled her to shore, but she died en route to the hospital. DNA evidence confirmed the gator matched one of two large alligators captured nearby. Officials say the attack was likely unprovoked, and while such incidents are rare, they underscore the risks of swimming in freshwater habitats where alligators live.
