Upper body injured
Shark kills teenager (17) in Australia
In the Australian state of Queensland, a teenager (17) was attacked and killed by a shark while swimming in the sea. The accident occurred off the sandy Bribie Island near Brisbane.
The shark is said to have attacked the girl late Monday afternoon (local time) about 100 meters from the shore. She suffered "catastrophic" injuries to her upper body. The rescuers who rushed to the scene were unable to help the young girl.
It was initially unclear what species of shark was involved. It was the third shark attack in Queensland in three months. In December, a man was killed by one of the predatory fish while spearfishing near Humpy Island in the Great Barrier Reef, and a few weeks earlier another spearfisherman was attacked near Gladstone and injured in both arms and one hand.
