Man attacked by alligator in Hurricane Ida’s floodwaters
A man was attacked by a large alligator while walking through floodwaters from Hurricane Ida and is now missing, a Louisiana sheriff has said.
The 71-year-old man’s wife told sheriff’s deputies that she heard a commotion at around noon on Monday, then walked outside to see the gator attacking her husband in the New Orleans suburb of Slidell, the St Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.
