Florida Retirement Community Sued by Family of Woman Killed in Alligator Attack

The family of an 85-year-old woman who was killed by a 10-foot alligator in a Florida retirement community has filed a wrongful death lawsuit, alleging that the community neglected to warn residents about the dangerous alligator despite being aware of its presence. The lawsuit claims that the retirement community could have prevented the tragedy by utilizing a state-contracted alligator trapper program. The family is seeking at least $50,000 in damages from the retirement community's owner and operator.
