American surfer dies after being attacked by a shark

47

A surfer enthusiast was attacked by a shark while practicing his hobby on the beach of Morro Bay Harbor in California, western America.
“The port, police and fire departments responded to a report of an unresponsive victim on shore after being pulled out of the water after apparently being attacked by a shark,” the port’s department said in a statement.
At 10:48 a.m. PT, officials located the surfer off Morro Bay Public Beach, according to harbor manager Eric Endersby.
Morro Bay is located 15 miles west of San Luis Obispo.

“The San Luis Obispo County Coroner’s Office has identified the victim and is working to notify the victim’s relatives before her identity is released,” Endersby said.
The authorities ordered the beach in which the accident occurred to avoid swimming during the next 24 hours, but did not prevent it completely.
Contrary to the popular belief that all sharks pose a threat to humans, but among the more than 360 species of sharks, there are a number within the circle of species that may prey on humans.
Only four types of sharks are among the species in whose name human deaths have been recorded, and they are the tiger shark, the great white shark, the bull shark and the oceanic white tip shark.
