ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - We're now learning authorities will update the media Wednesday morning around 6:30 on the search for a 2-year-old boy who was dragged into the water at Disney by an alligator.
The search is near Disney's upscale Grand Floridian Resort & Spa.
Speaking at a news conference early Wednesday, Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings says the family of five from Nebraska was on vacation and wading in a lake Tuesday evening when the attack happened. Demings says the father tried to rescue the child but was unsuccessful.
Demings says more than 50 law enforcement personnel are searching the Seven Seas Lagoon for the boy and will keep looking.
Demings says there have been no other recent reports of similar alligator attacks at the lake.
