A teenage boy was bitten by a blacktip shark while attending a lifeguard training camp in Volusia County, Florida A teenage boy was bitten by a shark while participating in a lifeguard training camp in Florida. The 14-year-old dove into the water just north of the New Smyrna Beach Jetty in Ponce Inlet when he landed on a four to five-foot-long blacktip shark, according to Volusia County Beach Safety. Immediately, the shark bit the boy on his calf.

And the day prior, a 21-year-old Ohio man playing football knee-deep in the water near Flagler Avenue was bitten by a shark, according to officials. He was also taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. That same day, the Fourth of July, a woman had much less luck a shark encounter than the 14-year-old boy. Tabatha Sullivent kicked what she thought was a ‘huge fish’ off South Padre Island in Texas and had her calf torn off by the animal, which turned out to be a shark.
