An investigation has begun into a woman killed by alligators on a Florida golf course.
The elderly woman reportedly lived near the course and was seen falling into a lake at Boca Royale Golf and Country Club.
The woman reportedly struggled to get out of the lake before the alligators attacked her and pulled her under the surface of the water.
The Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office and Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission have vowed to capture the alligators responsible for the woman’s death while the investigation continues.
