Florida woman, 41, tragically discovered deceased as authorities confirm her identity after an alligator was spotted carrying a body in its mouth
The woman who was discovered deceased has been identified by Florida authorities. This occurred subsequent to the sighting of an alligator with a body in its mouth in Largo, located in the Tampa Bay region. The authorities promptly arrived at the scene after receiving a call regarding the presence of the alligator in the water at approximately 1:50 p.m. on Friday.
The victim has been identified by the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office as Sabrina Peckham, 41.
According to JaMarcus Bullard, a witness who spoke to CNN affiliate Spectrum News 13, he had previously observed an alligator carrying a body in its mouth.
"I noticed that he had something in his mouth, so I immediately began recording," Bullard stated.

Residents in the area have previously sighted alligators, however, Jennifer Dean, a local resident, claimed to have never encountered one of such significant size before. Dean mentioned that her neighbors informed her about the presence of the alligator. As they were gathered there, they heard a gunshot, implying that the alligator might have been eliminated.
