Remains found inside a crocodile in Australia are believed to belong to a 65-year-old fisherman who went missing over the weekend
The remains have yet to be formally identified, but Queensland police said in a statement Wednesday that search and rescue operations for the missing man, identified by CNN affiliates as Kevin Darmody, had been discontinued. Department of Environment and Science wildlife officers caught two large crocodiles upstream from where Darmody was last seen during a fishing trip on the Kennedy River in Rinyirru National Park, northeast Queensland on Saturday. The two crocodiles were 4.1 meters and 2.
Detective Acting Inspector Jason Chetham had speculated on Monday that it was possible that Darmody had been dragged into the water by a large crocodile. “It could have happened, for sure,” Chetham said, according to CNN Affiliate 9 News. “There was a noise, a loud yell, and then the sound of the water splashing.” “It’s a national park and there are wild animals up there, wild crocodiles,” he added. “Obviously that’s one of the possibilities.
