Man Eaten by Crocodile After Violating Coronavirus Lockdown
A man in Africa violated a government lockdown order and was subsequently killed and eaten by a crocodile while attempting to go fishing.
The BBC reported the animal attack happened Wednesday along Rwanda’s Nyabarongo River.
“He had broken the stay-home rule, he’s among very few people here who are not cooperating with the lockdown to stop the virus,” said Alice Kayitesi, mayor of the southern Kamonyi district.
The man’s identity has not been released.
Rwanda, a country of roughly 12 million people, has confirmed 40 cases of COVID-19, which is the highest in the region.
The BBC also reported police in Rwanda shot and killed two men in the southern district of Nyanza after an argument about the government-imposed lockdown.
Those deaths have not been confirmed by authorities.
Other than the man killed by the crocodile, no official deaths in the country have been reported relating to the coronavirus so far.
Officials in Rwanda have enacted a mandatory two-week lockdown of all non-essential businesses.
Additionally, the country has banned travel between different cities and closed its borders.
Aside from exceptions for workers moving goods around the country, all citizens are required to self-isolate for a period of two weeks
