Um empresário de 59 anos de Gauteng desapareceu na noite de segunda-feira após ser arrastado enquanto tentava atravessar uma ponte baixa sobre o Rio Komati, em Mpumalanga, infestado de crocodilos. O veículo dele foi retirado do rio na terça-feira. Mergulhadores da polícia então localizaram e abateram um crocodilo a partir de um helicóptero, descobrindo restos humanos parciais dentro do animal, que acredita-se pertencerem ao homem desaparecido, segundo o Serviço de Polícia da África do Sul (SAPS). A polícia permanece no local aguardando a chegada de patologistas para examinar os restos mortais e verificar a identidade.
