An eight-year-old boy was tragically killed after being swallowed by a crocodile while swimming in a river with his little brother.
The boy's dad desperately chased the animal and reportedly punched it with his bare hands but the predator wasn't caught till the next day, a search and rescue official said.
The child was attacked in Indonesia’s East Kalimantan province and swam in a river known to be a crocodile habitat.
It is understood the six-metre crocodile was then found by locals and cut open on March 4, the Australian Associated Press reports.
The family wept as disturbing footage shows the child's body being pulled from the crocodile's tummy.
