Australian Surfer Dies After Shark Attack!
Nicholas Edwards, father-of-two, died after being attacked by a large shark in Western Australia’s world famous Margaret River surfing region.
Dunsborough police Sergeant Craig Anderson said 31-year-old Edwards was on his last day of vacation when he was attacked 300 metres from the South Point surf break south of Cowaramup Bay, near Gracetown.
Sergeant Anderson said a couple walking on the beach about 8am (WST) saw him sitting on his board waiting for a wave but when they turned around four minutes later, he had disappeared.
“They just saw the board only and a lot of grey objects around the board,” Sergeant Anderson said
“They’ve gone down a bit further and seen the fellow face down in the water amongst the rocks.”
It took the pair another six minutes to wade in and pull the unconscious surfer from the water. Sergeant Anderson said he was believed to already be dead but one of the rescuers tied a tourniquet and began CPR with the help of surfers who were suiting up in the carpark at the time.
“It appears that his right leg has been shredded with some significant injuries to the top of his leg and minor injuries to the calf,” Sergeant Anderson sa
About 10 minutes later his board washed up to shore after being bitten in half.
Serves him right!
