A man has died after he contracted a ‘flesh-eating’ bacterial infection from seawater.
Henry Konietzky, 59, died after he was exposed to the deadly bacteria while wading in the Halifax River in Florida.
Just this year nine deaths in the Volusia and Flager counties have been linked to the Vibrio vulnificus bacteria which normally lives in warm seawater.
Mr Konietzky died just 28 hours after he was infected while setting crab traps on Saturday, knee-deep in seawater.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
