You don't need the underlined part. Instead, say:

Bangkok, Thailand -- A giant crocodile bit a forty-one-year-old lady. She had been visiting Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park.
 
Say:

She sat near the crocodile and took a selfie with her mobile. When she tried to get up she noticed that the crocodile had bitten her left leg.

It is probably the case that the woman was bitten as she was getting up. (That makes more sense than my interpretation.)
 
I am pretty sure that the crocodile was not taking a selfie.
