A central Florida spring has been closed to the public after a swimmer was bitten by an 'aggressive' alligator.
— A central Florida spring has been closed to the public after a swimmer was bitten by an"aggressive" alligator, officials said.
Workers at the park rendered first aid and closed the swimming area, officials said. The man sought medical care on his own. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission managed the alligator's removal and will investigate the attack. ,"Every body of water has a potential to have an alligator, especially the springs. I mean, that's kind of a misconception that just because the water's cooler, they won't be in there."
