Holly Jenkins Wiki – Holly Jenkins Biography
Holly Jenkins was killed by an alligator while walking her dog in Hilton Head, South Carolina on Tuesday morning, the second fatal alligator attack in the county in less than a year, authorities said.
The beast mauled the 69-year-old woman near a pond that borders a golf course in the Spanish Wells community, where she lived, around 9:30 a.m., the sheriff’s office said. She was found unconscious at the edge of the lagoon and rescuers were unable to immediately reach her after an alligator emerged from the water and was “protecting the woman,” police said.
The 10-foot male alligator was removed from the area and the female’s body was eventually recovered. The Beaufort County coroner identified the victim as Holly Jenkins, WOTC reported. The autopsy is scheduled for Wednesday.
