A guide who invited foreign tourists to swim in crocodile-infested waters in northern Australia acted in a “grossly negligent” manner that led to the death of a German visitor, a coroner’s report said today.

A court in Darwin, Australia, will decide in March whether a tour guide should face trial for the death of a German tourist killed by a crocodile.

A tour guide in Australia accused of causing the death of a German tourist killed by a crocodile has failed to appear in court for his arraignment.

A tour guide is to be charged with causing the death of a German woman in a crocodile attack in northern Australia last month, police said today.
