NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a New Smyrna Beach
man was bitten by a shark while he was surfing.
Volusia County Beach Patrol spokesman Capt. Scott Petersohn said
the shark bit the 20-year-old's left foot while he was towing his
surfboard Sunday afternoon.
Petersohn said the man's friends took him to a hospital for
treatment. The man, who had lacerations to his foot and instep,
also got treatment on the scene.
