A woman was dragged under water and drowned by an alligator after she waded into a pond to touch it. Cynthia Covert was said to be calm as the animal gripped on to her body, while rescuers used a rope to help her to safety.

She told those trying to pull her out "I guess I won't be doing this again", seconds before the alligator started to begin a death roll.

The animal pulled her under the waist-deep water on Kiawah Island, South Carolina, US. About 10 to 15 minutes later her dead body floated to the surface, but as emergency crews who had since arrived went to her aid, they realised the alligator still had hold of her leg.
