Shark kills elderly tourist
By TMG Editor - 24 March 2014
AN elderly Austrian tourist died in a horror shark attack at Port St Johns' Second Beach at the weekend.
The 72-year-old man, who police declined to name, is the eighth person fatally savaged by sharks at the Wild Coast beach in five years.
Nearby beachgoers watched in horror on Saturday afternoon as the man, who was swimming with three other people in the murky, shallow water, was attacked off the popular beach.
His companions managed to reach the shore unharmed. - Sikho Ntshobane and Vuvu Vena
