Crocodile known as Michael Jackson shot after fisherman killed in front of wife in NT
A fisherman has been killed by a crocodile in the Northern Territory after wading into a river to unsnag his line.
The 57-year-old man’s wife looked on as he was attacked at the Adelaide River, about 60 kilometres from Darwin, on Monday afternoon.
Police say the man's wife ran for help after seeing her husband taken by a crocodile.
"He was there with his wife and he was fishing on the water's edge," NT Police Superintendent Jo Foley said.
"She left the scene because she saw this happen."
Police and wildlife officers searched the river using multiple boats, and located and shot a 4.5-metre crocodile known as 'Michael Jackson' a few hours later.

I'm astounded that they were able to find the time to do this thing.
Must be a lull in recording, eh?

Way to jump into warm ocean water a full millisecond after being splashed with the ice cold water, Jeff. Kinda defeats the purpose of the whole thing (well. Aside from the helping people/raising awareness thing).
Also I want that instrumental version of "My Father's Son".
