Members of Doche’s church watched helplessly in tears as the crocodile devoured him.


A protestant church pastor identified as Doche was reportedly attacked and devoured by a crocodile at Lake Abaya which is close to Arba Minch city, some five hundred kilometers to the south west of the capital Addis Ababa.

Lake Abaya which covers an area of 1,162 km² is known to have a huge Crocodile population.

According to BBC, at least 80 people were being baptised by Pastor Docho Eshete when the incident happened.

“He [Eshete] baptised the first person and he passed on to another one. All of a sudden, a crocodile jumped out of the lake and grabbed the pastor pushing aside the person he was baptising,” local resident Ketema Kairo was quoted as saying.

An Ethiopian online publication Borkena said that members of his church watched helplessly in tears as the crocodile devoured him.
