Swimming instructor killed by shark in Colombia dragged from water as he snorkelled

This is the first picture of the Italian swimming instructor killed in a shark attack off the coast of a Colombian island last week.

Antonio Roseto Degli Abruzzi, 56, was swimming in a popular snorkelling area called La Piscinita off the coast of Colombian island, San Andres, when an eight-foot fish tore a large chunk of his right thigh.

In graphic images published by local media outlets, he could be seen lying on his back in the moments after the attack - with blood pouring out of his wound.
