Men look at crocodile
Title
Men look at crocodile
Description
"THREE AGAINST ONE: Pictured with the eight-foot crocodile which they killed Sunday in the Port Royal area are [from left] Errol Lee, Rupert "Peter" Knight and Henrick Lee Loo.
Peter told the Daily News that his two companions were spear-fishing in the water at Fort Rupert when he spotted 'something' moving towards them. He alerted them, grabbed his speargun and dived into the water. The object proved to be a crocodile. All three decided to challenge him and after one and a half hours during which they were given some anxious moments by the reptile, they finally shot it."
