A 35-year-old British diving instructor has been identified as the person killed in a shark attack at a Sydney beach, Australian media reported, as officials reopened beaches after the first fatal attack off the city in nearly 60 years.
Simon Nellist, who moved to Australia about six years ago, was killed on Wednesday off Little Bay beach, about 20km (12 miles) south of Australia’s largest city while training for a weekend charity swim event, reports said, citing his friends.
