An 11-year-old girl in Zimbabwe
wrestled an alligator, gouging its eyes out, in a desperate effort to save her younger friend, a report said.
Rebecca Munkombwe sprung into action when she heard the screams of a 9-year-old classmate who was attacked by the crocodile while swimming in a stream in the town of Hwange last week, according to Zimbabwe’s Sunday News.
“I was the eldest among the other seven children, I felt the urge to save her,” the girl told the newspaper. “So, I jumped into the water and swam to where she was struggling to float.”
