On Tuesday morning, a woman was killed in an alligator attack while walking her dog near a lagoon in South Carolina. Rescue efforts were interrupted by an alligator guarding the woman, who was later found dead at the edge of the lagoon. This marks the second fatal alligator attack in Beaufort County in less than a year. The sheriff’s office is currently investigating the incident and has urged residents to be aware of their surroundings and to take necessary precautions when near bodies of water.
