Police
are searching for a 9-year-old boy who was snatched by a crocodile as
he was swimming in the mouth of a river in northern Australia.
Nearby people attempted to kill the crocodile with spears, but it then dragged the boy farther into the water.
Police planned to continue searching on Monday but expressed pessimism about the chances of finding the boy alive.
Two
weeks ago, another crocodile snatched a 7-year-old girl who was
swimming at a Northern Territory waterhole. The crocodile was fatally
shot the next day and the girl's remains were found inside it.
