Canberra. On Saturday, a shark attacked a 16-year-old minor (Shark Attacked On Girl) in the Swan River of Perth’s city of Western Australia, causing her painful death. The local police gave this information. Inspector Paul Robinson of the Western Australia Police said emergency personnel provided medical assistance at the scene, but could not save him.
According to the Guardian’s report, District Inspector Paul Robinson described the incident as tragic and said that the minor was riding a jetski with her friends. After seeing the dolphins, she jumped off her jetski and jumped into the water, only to be attacked by a shark. His dead body was taken out from the river in critical condition, there were terrible wounds on his body. He was immediately provided medical aid but he had already died. Police said that the family of the deceased was not at the accident site at the time of the incident, but those who would have seen this scene must have been very dangerous.
Experts say that the ‘rare attack’ could be done by a bull shark. Although what kind of shark it was, it is yet to be confirmed. Wildlife scientist Dr Vanessa Pirotta told Weekend Today that the species is currently believed to be a bull shark. The bull shark is a species found in warm, shallow waters along coasts and rivers.
