A golfer jumped in to try and save a woman after seeing her fall into an alligator-infested pond in a Sarasota County neighborhood last week, but 911 audio reveals he was unable to help and had to retreat.
Sheriff’s Office released some of the audio from those 911 calls, days after Rose Marie Wiegand was attacked and killed by two alligators.
It happened Friday evening. Golfers saw Wiegand fall into the pond behind her home inside the Englewood golf community.The woman was not alive when first responders pulled her from the pond. The 911 caller, who stated he was in his 70s, jumped in the water but had to get out for his own safety."I was playing the 6th hole and this lady was across the water. It looked like she was trimming the edge, and she fell in. She was screaming… I tried to get to her, and she went under. I just couldn’t find her," the man said on the recording.The medical examiner said Wiegand died from injuries she experienced during the attack.
