OMGosh! Just saw this on the news. Trying to find more info.

"According to several tweets, the child was on the beach during a “movie night” event when the incident occurred."

"Some witnesses said they saw the boy along the beach area near the water, but no eye witnesses to him being dragged into the water were available for comment Tuesday night."

Praying, praying, praying that he simply wandered away and will be found. Since it may not have been witnessed, I am hoping it was not an abduction.

Oh, JanetElaine, I hope they are all safe.

Oh God this is horrific. How was the child allowed near the water in the dark? Is it normal for guests to be so near gators in Disney particularly at night when more vulnerable to them? I know the gators can come out the water and pull you in. If this is what has happened it is horrendous the poor parents.

Me too JanetElaine I hope you get confirmation soon they are all ok.

"The sheriff's office confirms a two-year-old child was dragged into the water by the alligator. No word if the child has been rescued."
So it must have been witnessed, sigh. No words.

If you see the pic in this article, it was at the resort. The area where they were is beside a lagoon.

.@OrangeCoSheriff says at 12:45 they will be giving a press conference. I will live stream it

Prayers for this little guy's parents. Horrifying!

It will definitely be interesting to see if the public blames the parents for not watching their child close enough, like they did with the gorilla incident.

I bet money they will.

Witnesses say the father wrestled with the alligator?

With disney having cameras everywhere I wonder if it was how they found out it was an alligator because if a person saw this everyone would know right away what happened. I bet they could not find him then looked at cameras.

I'll take that with a grain of salt. Witnesses say a lot of weird stuff that turns out to be untrue.
But if it is true, that's really awful, because to see it happen and try to fix it and fail in these circumstances is pretty horrifying for the father
