"Some witnesses said they saw the boy along the beach area near the water, but no eye witnesses to him being dragged into the water were available for comment Tuesday night."

Praying, praying, praying that he simply wandered away and will be found. Since it may not have been witnessed, I am hoping it was not an abduction.

Oh God this is horrific. How was the child allowed near the water in the dark? Is it normal for guests to be so near gators in Disney particularly at night when more vulnerable to them? I know the gators can come out the water and pull you in. If this is what has happened it is horrendous the poor parents.

If you see the pic in this article, it was at the resort. The area where they were is beside a lagoon.

It will definitely be interesting to see if the public blames the parents for not watching their child close enough, like they did with the gorilla incident.

With disney having cameras everywhere I wonder if it was how they found out it was an alligator because if a person saw this everyone would know right away what happened. I bet they could not find him then looked at cameras.
