Shark bites off teenager's leg

A 15-year-old tourist had part of his leg bitten off by a shark today as he swam at a beach in Australia’s remote southwest, officials said.

The youth, holidaying with his family from South Australia, was attacked as he body surfed with his 18-year-old brother and a 15-year-old friend about 40 yards offshore at Duke of Orleans Bay, about 435 miles south of the Western Australia state capital of Perth, said ambulance spokesman Stephen Luke.
