A pensioner was tragically killed and "held hostage" in an apparent deadly alligator attack.
The victim, named as 88-year-old Nancy A. Becker, was reportedly killed after she found herself in a pond at the gated community she was living in at the time in Sun City, South Carolina, US.
Reports from local media say she had slipped into the pond while gardening, where she was then pounced upon by the alligator.
