A fisherman whose body was pulled from the water Monday was likely killed by a large crocodile, police said, after his empty dinghy and speargun were found in northern Australia. The 35-year-old was fishing alone off Innisfail, south of Cairns in Queensland state, and was reported missing on Sunday evening when the boat and floating speargun, which was pierced through a fish, were discovered. "Initial investigations suggest the man may have been taken by a crocodile," Queensland police said, adding that they believe it was a four-metre (13-feet) beast.
