An eight-year-old boy was tragically killed after being swallowed by a crocodile while swimming in a river with his little brother. The child was attacked in Indonesia’s East Kalimantan province and swam in a river known to be a crocodile habitat. It is understood the six-metre crocodile was then found by locals and cut open on March 4, the Australian Associated Press reports. “An employee heard someone screaming for help, he quickly went there and saw a crocodile attacking someone,” Basar Manullang said in a statement. After the burial of the man, villagers entered the farm and killed all the crocodiles, said Manullang.
