The beat goes on

Here:


MIAMI (Reuters) - An alligator grabbed and killed a Florida woman who disappeared while jogging near a canal, a medical examiner determined on Thursday.
... Alligator attacks are relatively rare. [Yovy] Suarez Jimenez's death was the 18th fatal attack in Florida since the state began keeping records in the 1940s, [Dani] Moschella[, a spokeswoman for the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission,] said.

Rare or not, the media will inundate us with such reports all summer.
Case in point:

FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) -- An elderly woman, who was bitten by an alligator while working in her backyard, beat back the reptile with a garden hose.
