NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. — Authorities say a third person was bitten by a shark in New Smyrna Beach Sunday after two people were bitten Saturday, WFTV reports.
A 68-year-old man from Nashville had his right foot bitten just before 3 p.m. Sunday, Capt. Mike Berard said.
The man said the shark bit him when he was standing in knee-deep water.
He refused to be taken to a hospital after sustaining minor lacerations from the bite that were bandaged by officials, Berard said.
A shark also bit a 23-year-old woman on the left hand and wrist, causing her to get stitches Saturday, authorities said.
Shortly after the first bite, a 21-year-old man was bitten on his right foot.
Neither bite was life-threatening.
It is unknown what type of shark or sharks bit the two people.
