Let's Blame The Crocodile!

 How dores the BBC, that bastion of truth, choose to headline the story about the lunatic who threw a child inro a crocodile enclosure at a local zoo?

I suppose we should congratulate them on their photo - it is an actual crocodile, the 'Daily Mail' was making do with a photo of an alligator..

Cambridgeshire Police said a 30-year-old man arrested on suspicion of attempted murder had been bailed and was "unfit for interview". He reportedly has learning disabilities and had been on a trip to Johnsons of Old Hurst, near Huntingdon, with carers. It is believed the boy was attacked on Thursday by at least one crocodile after ending up in their enclosure.

We all know how he 'ended up' in there, the same way a young boy ended up at the bottom of the Tate Modern all those years ago.... 

Officers said they were called to the zoo at 13:34 BST on Thursday and were working to establish how long the boy was in the enclosure. Police said the crocodiles had not been seized or killed.

Why would they be? The police don't have any facilities to hold them, and they can't be interviwed!

Det Insp Verity McCann said: "Our inquiries are ongoing as we continue to understand the circumstances surrounding this distressing incident. 

"Our thoughts remain with the boy, and his family and specialist officers continue to support them through this difficult time."

I'm sure that's what they are doing, and not making sure they don't make a fuss or take to social media... 

The man who was arrested was from Norfolk, police said, and was not at the zoo as part of an organised group visit.

A witness told the BBC she had seen a man in his late 20s, accompanied by two women wearing lanyards who she believed may have been carers, walking through the zoo about 10 minutes before the incident.

The lanyard classes usually choose opportunities to create multiple harms, not singular, this is the only surprising aspect!

Cambridgeshire Police confirmed the suspect was white British after misinformation shared on social media.

And the 'carers'? What was their nationality? 

One visitor, who wished to remain anonymous, told the BBC... the crocodiles appeared calm and largely motionless during her visit.

They do that, until they don't. The inquest/h&s report is going to tell us more, but I doubt the stated injuries come from anything other than the fall from height.
