LARGO, Fla. (AP) — A Florida man has been identified after authorities say he waded into a lake inhabited by alligators to find Frisbees and other flying discs to sell. The Largo Police Department said Sean Thomas McGuinness, 47, was found Tuesday morning at the Taylor Park lake by someone walking a dog. Although the exact cause of death is unknown, police said McGuinness suffered injuries involving alligators. Authorities say McGuinness was known to frequent Taylor Park, home to a disc golf course adjacent to the lake. That was where McGuinness would find Frisbees and other discs that he could resell.
