Some reports saying witness saw the dad wrestle with the alligator. No confirmation if it is true or not.
They reported on the news this morning that the father did try to save his son and got bitten. The son was splashing in the water near the beach and the gator came partly up on land. Not sure time of day. Disney stated that they have safeguards in place, but the wildlife expert said there are waterways in and throughout, including some underwater that you don't see, where they can easily enter.
I honestly don't know how a parent gets over something like this -- I pray for all involved and all who witnessed it, but especially for the parents. This will be a very long road for them and it is heartbreaking.
