ORLANDO, Fla. — An Orlando man was sent to the hospital Monday after a shark in Daytona Beach bit him, officials said.
The 33-year-old man was in a popular resort area, near 1025 S. Atlantic Ave., when the incident happened, Deputy Chief Tamra Malphurs with Volusia County Beach Safety Ocean Rescue said in a statement.
He was in waist-deep water when he was bitten on the right foot, presumably by a shark, she said. He was sent to the hospital for treatment. His injuries are not considered life-threatening.
