The following appeared in yesterday's Space Coast Daily:
BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE BEACH, FLORIDA – A 28
year-old Melbourne Beach resident was transported to Holmes Regional
Medical Center in stable condition Thursday evening after suffering an
apparent shark bite while surfing.
The unidentified man told rescuers that he was about 50 feet from the shore line when the bite occurred.
As he paddled out, he reportedly felt something grab his hand as it
entered the water and, after pulling his hand free, then saw what he
described as an approximately 5-foot-long unidentified shark swimming
away.
Should you avoid the water? Nah - just be on your guard, folks. The ocean temp is so warm it will probably
attract more sharks this year...
