Shark savages teen’s leg

A SHARK bit a teenage surfer’s leg to the bone off a Sydney beach early yesterday — the Australian city’s third attack in as many weeks, police said.

The 15-year-old boy was surfing with his father at Avalon, one of Sydney’s northern beaches, when the shark struck, the NSW police force said.

“The father heard a scream and turned to see his son thrashing about in the water,” police said.
