Shark Bites Teenage At Florida Beach


A teenage boy was bitten on his left calf by a shark Saturday afternoon while swimming at a Florida beach. The shark took the boy's leg into its mouth, bit and scraped down the leg and released. The bite happened about 1 p.m. when the boy was swimming with his mother. His mother told authorities she saw him go under the water to his neck and then he screamed. He was taken by helicopter to the hospital.
