The man who died from a fatal shark attack near Rottnest Island in Western Australia, has been identified as Steven Mattaboni – a prolific spearfisher and a father of two.
The 38-year-old was fatally wounded and died shortly after he was bitten by a 4m (13ft) long white shark at about 9.54am local time on Saturday near Horshoe reef, north of Marjorie Bay on the western end of a popular holiday island.
