Hunt for croc

PARK rangers in northern Australia have been ordered to kill any large crocodile they find after a 20-year-old man disappeared yesterday while swimming in a crocodile-infested river.

Rangers are searching for a missing man in the Daly River after his partner, who was watching from the riverbank, told police she saw a crocodile nearby.

They are searching the river for the man as well as the crocodile.
