Elderly woman Rose Marie Wiegand stumbles into pond and killed by two alligators in Englewood, Florida

Rose Marie Wiegand, 80, was recognized as the elderly woman who passed away after being attacked and killed by an alligator in a pond that was located close to her home at a country club in Florida.

An old woman died after slipping into a pond close to her home in Florida. Her terrified splashing drew the attention of two alligators, and they attacked her before she could swim to safety.

The woman, whose identity has not yet been disclosed, was reportedly seen Friday evening at around 7.47 p.m. plunging into a pond filled with alligators close to her property at the Boca Royale Golf and Country Club in Englewood.

Two alligators were reportedly observed swimming toward the woman as she struggled to keep afloat.

Then, before she could get away, they grabbed her.

The woman’s death was confirmed at the scene, and an inquiry is currently under way into the circumstances surrounding her death.

The alligators have since been taken from the pond by trappers working for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

However, her passing is only the most recent in a series of recent alligator attacks that have occurred in the southern United States.
