A Florida fisherman was fatally attacked by a large alligator while standing on the shoreline, authorities confirmed. The incident occurred near a waterway, where the 12-foot reptile reportedly dragged the victim into the water. Witnesses described the attack as sudden and violent, with the alligator seizing the man before he could react. Officials are investigating whether the gator may have been habituated to human presence, a growing concern in areas where wildlife increasingly interacts with people.
