Report of flesh eating bacteria concerns some beachgoers
During the summer a lot of people in Connecticut come to the shoreline to cool off. One New Britain man says he dipped his feet in the water at Hammonasset Beach State Park and contracted a flesh eating disease.
“You can contract anything like that anywhere. Sitting in a waiting room at MediQuick or going to your doctor’s office and sure I’m sure you probably can catch it in the water,” said beach-goer Sherry Crick of Meriden.
