And we begin tonight with that devastating headline from disney world. We learned late today that the boy, the body of that 2yearold boy pulled into the water by an alligator has been found. His body intact, found in the water. Authorities had said early today the attack was, quote, unsurvivable. Its believed the 2yearold was standing in an inch or two of water and was snatched by that alligator, just after 9 00 p. M. Last night, off this beach. His father trying to pry his boy away from the alligator. All day long, the desperate search in the water and from the air. And tonight, the discovery. And new word coming in from disney, the Parent Company of abc. Gio benitez leads us off from orlando. Reporter tonight, officials making the heartbreaking announcement.

The parents witnessing it all, rushing into the water. The father wrestling the alligator, trying to save his son. But hes unsuccessful. The gator pulling away with the child. The father calls 911. Of course, the family was distraught. And i believe what this 2yearold was doing was what perhaps any 2yearold might be doing.

Wildlife Officials Say disney has a fulltime staff observing these waters and any gators spotted are reported and removed. Disney world today closing all beaches on the property.

We are devastated and heartbroken by this tragic accident, and are doing what we can to help the family during this difficult time. On behalf of everyone at disney, we offer our deepest sympathies. Attacks on humans are rare, but there are an estimated 1 million alligators across the state of florida alone. They say that here in florida, in just about every lake, every body of water, find a gator. Thats true. If its fresh or brackish, theres probably going to be a gator in it. It was nighttime, thats when they like to hunt. They hear splashing in the water, a small object and easy target. And its kind of almost like a perfect storm. Reporter tonight, many families on vacation in parts of the country where there are alligators are asking, is there anything you can do if one strikes . Experts say, they are very strong, their grip almost unbreakable, but they say your best chance is to try to poke them in their eyes or snout, their most sensitive spots, with the hope they would release their grip. And david, tonight, all of the beaches here are still closed. And disney says it will thoroughly review this situation. David . A horrible loss. Gio benitez, thank you. The country woke up to the news of this alligator attack with orlando already reeling from that terror attack at the nightclub. A very difficult time for that city.

Reporter now as fbi agents seek more information on mateens path to that terrorfilled night in orlando, Officials Say they have discovered he was active online, using at least four separate facebook accounts. On the night of the shooting, he wrote, now taste the Islamic State vengeance. Adding, in the next few days, you will see attacks from the Islamic State in the usa. And then, just before he died in the shootout with police, mateen took the time to call a local tv station. And he cut me off and said, im the shooter. Its me, im the shooter. For the Islamic State, he did it for isis. Reporter brian, you are learning about what could be another missed signal in this case . Reporter thats right, david. The owner of a gun shop in jensen beach, florida, told abc news tonight that mateen tried to buy body armor and bulk ammunition from him, but he turned him down because he seemed suspicious, and the owner says he then notified authorities about his suspicions of mateen and that was at least three weeks before the shooting.

Mateens father telling us, he does not know if she was involved. My daughterinlaw is the most sincere and the most wonderful lady. Reporter david, law after salman started answering questions, they gave her a polygraph test. David . Linzie janis with us tonight. Linzie, thank you.

In a tweet today, trump proclaimed, i will be meeting with the nra, who has endorsed me, about not allowing people on the terrorist watch list, or the no fly list, to buy guns.
