  1. Incomplete news Report … WTH

  2. Start eradicating the crock population and don't depend on ur gov cause they are useless @ best!

  3. A former co worker who once lived in Florida due to her military husbands orders told us stories about alligators killing pets, getting on your property and killing people. She hated Florida very much and would later have nightmares about living there. She said she would wake up and go down to her kitchen to fix coffee and find lizards had gotten in and would be in her kitchen area or downstairs somewhere. She said they often saw alligators all over the place according to her and once a neighbor's small child went missing and hours into the search it was determined to be an alligator was responsible. She said that's when she told her husband she was packing up and they had to move at once. She warned all of us never to live in Florida.

  6. Just keep building everywhere and blame it on the animals.๐Ÿ˜ก

  7. NBC this news brief is below standard…most of it taken up with advertisement. We can get this quality news report several other places. We come to you for top of the line report. Maybe I need to unsubscribe.

  8. I love California. โค๏ธ

  9. Well they're not puppies, stop trying to pet them!

  10. Very bad report, what exactly happened, when it happened …but just some 1 minute report which leaves us with more questions

  11. This breaks my heart to see this on hereโ€ฆ my prayers go out to my ex husband family .. She will be missed ๐Ÿ•Š

  12. Guess Joe got tired of Jill and the vacation already.

  13. So what do the gators eat in these ponds at golf courses and retirement communities? Doesnโ€™t seem like, other than people or dogs and cats, thereโ€™s a lot of other options. Doubt if thereโ€™s much in the way of fish or random wildlife to feed on in these areas.

  14. FBI raid on Mar a Lago was political
    Hillary did the same but FBI just ignored her lawbreaking and never raided her house..pure liberal bias..
    Jan 6th committee is nothing more than Democrats last desperate attempt to save the midterms ..
    Cassidy Hutchinson was proven to be a BIG FAT LIAR by Secret Service and should be charged with perjury.
    Putin would NEVER have invaded Ukraine if Trump was President..๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ
    Donald J Trump was one of our GREATEST Presidents and could be Almighty GOD himself…he came down to Earth from Heaven to SAVE Humanity from Obamas madness and anti Christ socialist policies…
    He is the GREATEST man that has EVER lived PAST PRESENT FUTURE.

    Trump should be President for LIFE
    And should be KING OF AMERICA..
    ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘
    and should be on Mount Rushmore next to Lincoln..America should be renamed Trumperica in his honor.๐Ÿ˜

  15. Alligators are DANGEROUS…๐ŸŠ๐ŸŠ

  16. Wow I'm just 45 mins north of Myrtle Beach and here in the CapeFear River, Brunswick river and Town Creek there are loads of alligators not uncommon to see 10 footers if you go looking, my condolences to the friends and family that's a horrible way to spend your last moments

  17. One more Trumper down๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ

  18. Was she trying to get a selfie for her snapchat story?

  19. Who really cares….
    Really?

  20. Maybe they had to check if it was their comfort pet before they acted

  21. I'm literally never going to the south lol

  22. they say ' women dead' but dont mention who the women is???

  23. Such a painful story to listen to. My prayers are for the family and other loved ones, ๐ŸŒบ๐Ÿ’ฎ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿต๏ธ๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒบ๐Ÿ’ฎ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿต๏ธ๐ŸŒผ

  24. Normally it's tourists in Florida whose pets or kids get attacked.
    Normally not an adult nor a Florida resident.
    The residents know better than to walk near ponds or lakes.

  25. The alligator was basically eating her

  26. A 56 second video and 25 are the closing theme and self-promo. Come on.

  27. This happened minutes away from me.. itโ€™s very sad and unfortunate what happened to her but itโ€™s a serious reminder that we have to cautiously keep a distance between them.. the water is their home.. we have a pond in our backyard and we NEVER walk the edge or go out back at night. Truly tragic what happened ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

  28. omfg that just disturbing and sad….. even she sounded really out of words

  29. More woke Democrats, shoot those stupid things

  30. This is why I don't wander off if an alligator is in the way. Sorry, but even Jesus won't save you for being du/)/(b!

  31. Gator, "KEEP BACK SOCIAL DISTANCE" and stay thefuckaway from my lunch.

  32. ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธClassy report

  33. 9 of the top 11 states with the lowest per capita state spending on law enforcement are the Republican-led states of South Dakota, West Virginia, Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, Iowa, Arkansas, Indiana and Kentucky.

  34. SAD

    RIP ๐Ÿ™โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’œโค๏ธ

  35. And why wouldn't they clear out the gators

    It's a retirement community

  36. Day ummm. Ya'll got some mean, hungry gators and bad, criminal US Senators in SC!
