ORIGINAL REPORT: Woman Loses Arm In Alligator Attack

Janie Melsek, 54, of Sanibel, had her arm amputated after the alligator attack Wednesday. She was also severely injured on her buttocks and inner thighs from the gator bites, but doctors believed she would walk again, her family said.

Melsek was in critical condition after her arm was amputated midway between her elbow and wrist during six hours of surgery.

However, Melsek died Friday morning during surgery at Lee Memorial Hospital, according to The News Press in Fort Myers, Fla.

Police shot the alligator in the head, killing it. It took six men to lift the 12-foot, 3-inch animal to shore.

The body was being sent to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, which will perform a necropsy.

The attack on Melsek was the second on Sanibel this year.
