Man-eating crocodile suspected of killing SIX people is finally caught

Locals from of the Kakira village, in eastern Uganda, gather to look at the enormous man-eating crocodile believed to have killed six people

A man-eating crocodile suspected of killing at least six people has been captured off the shores of Lake Victoria in Uganda.

The enormous beast, over 18ft long and weighing approximately a tonne, was caught after worried locals demanded wildlife officials hunt it down.
Its latest victim is believed to be father-of-two Bosco Nyansi, a local fisherman whose tattered clothing was discovered floating on the water.
No other trace of Mr Nyansi has been found and friends say he was mauled by the beast. 

The animal, believed to be over 80-years-old, is thought to have seriously injured several other fishermen after developing a taste for human flesh.
Game wardens trapped it using a large chunk of meat on a hook following a four-day search. They trapped it in a corner before binding it up with rope.
