Texas is quickly becoming the new Florida

Man mocks alligators, jumps in water and is killed in Texas

Tommie Woodward, 28, and an unidentified woman were swimming in a bayou and had been attacked by a large alligator.

An alligator lurks in the bayou off Burkart's Marina

ORANGE COUNTY, TX (CNN) – A man who apparently mocked alligators, then jumped in the water — despite warning signs — is dead after being attacked in Texas.

Orange County Police were called to Burkart’s Marina near the Louisiana state line early Friday morning after reports that Tommie Woodward, 28, and an unidentified woman were swimming in a bayou and had been attacked by a large alligator.

Woodward’s body was found several hours later. The woman was not injured. Orange County Justice of the Peace Rodney Price told CNN affiliate KFDM that Woodward ignored verbal warnings and a posted “No Swimming Alligators” sign and seemed to mock the deadly creatures before going in the water.

“He removed his shirt, removed his billfold … someone shouted a warning and he said ‘blank the alligators’ and jumped in to the water and almost immediately yelled for help,” Price said.

The “No Swimming Alligators” sign was posted this week after a 10-foot alligator was spotted in the bayou waters.

Witness heard ‘An alligator’s got him’

“Please do not go swimming, there’s a bigger alligator out here. Just please stay out of the water,” witness and marina employee Michelle Wright said she told Woodward.

She said the next thing she heard was the woman screaming, “An alligator’s got him.” Wright said she used a flashlight in the darkness to scan the water.

In an emotional interview with KFDM, Wright said, “I saw his body floating face down. And then he’s out there for a couple of seconds and then he’s dragged back down. And then he comes back up still face down and then he gets pulled down again. And then he just disappears.”

Wright, who said she knew the victim and his family, said it was a moment she would never forget. She described the events that started out as a late night swim as “heartbreaking.”

Woodward had recently moved to the area from St. Louis with his twin brother and was working at a nearby shipyard.

‘If the sun is down, stay out of the water’

Alligators are predatory and territorial. According to Texas Parks and Wildlife, the creature “will eat anything it can catch,” and should be treated with caution.

“If the sun is down, stay out the water. That’s when they’re eating. That’s when they’re hunting,” alligator expert Arlie Hammonds told the affiliate.

Although there have been numerous fatal alligator attacks in Florida, the Orange County attack may be the first of its kind in Texas.

CNN’s Dave Alsup, Jeremy Grisham and Carma Hassan contributed to this report

The sign said "No swimming alligators." That sign lied. Apparently there were quite a few swimming alligators.

Shouldn't it actually be a semicolon?

He may have a semicolon now.

Growing up I was always told that Alligators were the docile ones and Crocodiles were the aggressive ones. I was told that Alligators are harmless unless you screw with their kin...I guess that may not be the case.

June 11: A Fort Lauderdale woman called 911 to say a man had ripped her off in a drug deal. According to a Broward County Sheriff's Office report, Daneshia Heller, 19, told an officer that a man took $5 from her to buy pot, but left her empty-handed. Heller called 911, telling a dispatcher, "He got my money, and I want my drugs. Can you send an officer?" They did, and officers found Heller had the chemical drug flakka. She was arrested.

June 22: Pinellas County deputies arrested a 23-year-old man wearing a red tank top and no pants, who "would stop on occasion and pose like Superman exposing himself and urinating." Joshua Masciarelli was intoxicated during his midnight ramble not far from his Palm Harbor home, according to a police report. When confronted by a sheriff's deputy, Masciarelli "could not explain why he had no pants on," nor did he know the way home. The Smoking Gun labels Masciarelli a "stuporhero.''

June 17: A Bradenton woman admitted to taking selfies as she had sex with her pit bull at her grandmother's house, police said. Ashley Miller, 18, was charged with two counts of sexual activities involving animals after investigators found graphic photos on her phone. The 18-year-old had coaxed her dog, 2-face, into licking her vagina between 30 and 40 times over the past five years, she told police according to documents obtained by the Smoking Gun.

That is true. Don't **** with them, get near a nesting mom or corner them and they will leave you alone.

Maybe he misinterpreted the sign.

"No Swimming Alligators"

He probablly thought they were land locked.
