Police in Cambridgeshire say a 30-year-old man arrested after a three-year-old boy was found in a crocodile enclosure at a private zoo has been released on bail while the investigation continues. Multiple outlets report that the man was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after the incident, in which the child required rescue from the crocodile pen. Police have said he is not fit to be interviewed, based on an assessment, and therefore detectives conduct further inquiries through the major crimes unit. Sky News and other reports identify the man as from Norfolk. The boy’s condition is described as critical but stable in at least one report, and he remains under medical care following the incident. Police continue to investigate the circumstances leading to the child ending up in the enclosure and the extent of any contributing factors at the zoo. The release on bail does not resolve the investigation, and police indicate further steps are ongoing as they gather information.
