A crocodile has killed a man while he was retrieving golf balls from Lake Panic dam in South Africa’s flagship wildlife reserve. | |
Officials at Kruger national park said the animal grabbed 29-year-old Jacques van der Sandt and disappeared under the water at a golf course next to a staff residential area. | |
Rangers killed the crocodile after a two-hour search on Wednesday night. The body of Van der Sandt, the son of a park employee, was recovered. | |
Oubaas Coetzer, a police officer, said Van der Sandt was attacked while he and a friend played a game to see who could retrieve the most golf balls from the dam. |
