No charges against parents of toddler taken by alligator at a Walt Disney World beach

A sheriff said charges are unlikely against a Nebraska couple after an alligator killed their two-year-old son by snatching him out of shallow water at a Walt Disney World beach, but the entertainment giant is reviewing whether to add alligator warning signs.

Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings said there was no indication Will and Melissa Graves of suburban Omaha, Nebraska, committed any crime that contributed to the reptile grabbing their son, Lane Graves.

“There’s nothing in this case to indicate that there was anything extraordinary” in terms of neglect by the parents, Demings said.
