Shark Attacks Surfer Off Delray Beach Lions Shark
A 19 year old surfer, Alan M Brenneka of Sunrise Florida, remained in critical condition after a five to six foot shark mangled his right arm about 40 yards offshore in the Atlantic. He was aided to shore by fellow bathers Mark Schroeder and John McCurdy who helped prevent further blood loss before hospital treatment. The beach was closed and police noted no recent similar attacks. Schroeder, a Florida State University freshman, said he would not stop surfing and planned to take up shark fishing.
