Ohio Man Gets Settlement After Losing Arm To Alligator On Golf Course

An Ohio man who lost an arm in an alligator attack on a South Carolina golf course has received a settlement.
?? ?
The terms of the settlement with James Wiencek were not disclosed.
?? ?
Wiencek was playing the 11th hole of Fripp Island's Ocean Creek Golf Course in 2009 when he reached down to pick up his ball.

He was attacked by a 400-pound alligator that dragged him into a pond.
?? ?
The case against Fripp Island Resort Inc. was handled in federal court but did not go to trial.
?? ?
Attorney Mark Chappell said the resort's documents showed alligators were routinely fed by visitors. Chappell says his client was not warned.
?? ?
Resort attorney Laura Evans would only say that the company wishes Wiencek well.
?? ?
The arm was recovered but could not be reattached.
