Crocodile drags away Australian woman; official blames 'human stupidity'

A saltwater crocodile reportedly dragged away a
woman as she swam at a beach Sunday night in the
Queensland state of Australia.
QUEENSLAND, Australia — A woman on a trip to
celebrate the end of her friend's cancer treatment
was dragged away by a saltwater crocodile as the
women swam at a beach Sunday night.
The BBC reports Cindy Waldron, 46, was with friend
Leeann Mitchell, 47, at Thornton Beach near Cairns
when the attack occurred at about 10:30 p.m. The
women were in waist-deep water.
Witnesses reportedly heard Waldron scream, "A
croc's got me, a croc's got me!"
Mitchell tried to pull Waldron away from the
crocodile but was unsuccessful. Waldon has not
been seen since.
Warren Entsch, an official with the North
Queensland MP, says the victim is at fault for the
attack, according to inquisitr.com.
The area where the women were swimming was
near a creek that offers crocodile-spotting tours,
Entsch says.
"You can't legislate against human stupidity,"
Entsch says. "This is a tragedy but it was avoidable.
You can only get there by ferry and there are signs
there saying watch out for the bloody crocodiles. If
you go in swimming at 10 o'clock at night, you're
going to get consumed."
On average, two people per year are killed by
crocodiles in Australia.
