A tourist who vanished off the south coast of Maui while snorkelling this month was likely eaten by a shark, two investigations found.

The woman, 60, was visiting from Washington state with her husband, who saw the shark and began looking futilely for his wife on 8 December, according to a release from Hawaii’s Department of Land and Natural Resources. The couple have not been named and no body has been found, though a snorkel set and piece of a bathing suit were recovered.
