A 14 year old Malawian boy has died in Nkhatabay district after a crocodile attacked him when he was fishing in Lutupa River in the district.

Police identified the deceased as Blessings Phiri who was a standard four pupil at Kachere primary school.

Police spokesperson Ignasious Esau said the crocodile dragged the deceased into the river.

“After his disappearance the community searched for him and they found his body which was found without legs,” said Esau.

Phiri hailed from Iteta village Traditional Authority Fukamapiri in Nkhatabay district.

Rip Blessings but the explanation is simple poverty is to blame Crocodiles and human beings are fighting for survival, Over fishing is leaving Crocodiles with no choice .
