An alligator attacked a man in Florida Tuesday evening -- about an hour away from where a boy was killed by a gator outside a Disney resort, according to the local sheriff's office.

The attack in Bushnell, Florida, happened around 6:30 p.m. and left the 58-year-old man with injuries to his right leg, the Sumter County Sheriff's Office said in a Facebook post.

The man's condition was not immediately known, but he was airlifted to Ocala Regional Hospital.

Police said that the gator was 8 1/2 to 9 feet long.
