12 year-old and Georgia native, Josh Bitner Jr., was doing what most kids do whenever they go to the beach, frolic around in the water and look for seashells.
Little did Josh know, but as he played in the water, a shark was about to take bite of his leg.
Josh yelled “Shark!” but his dad didn’t believe him.It wasn’t until he “dragged” himself out of the water that his father, and others, realized that he had been bitten by a shark. Twice.
Josh said the following about his encounter with the shark:
“I was going backward dragging my foot,” he said. “I pushed myself out of the water until people saw I was split open, then they lifted me out of the water.”
Josh was treated by paramedics for lacerations on his leg, then taken to UF Health for stitches. He is in good condition, hospital officials said.
This was the first shark bite reported in Fernandina Beach this year. But another was reported Sunday at Vilano Beach, plus two more Thursday at Jacksonville Beach and Little Talbot Island, bringing the total to seven in Northeast Florida since June.
This little guy punched back at the shark, landing a solid right cross.
“I grabbed its top fin and lifted it out of the water and punched it,” the 12-year-old said. “It was just instinct. If something is turning me around and hurting me, then I’m going to punch it.”-Source
