'Celebrity shark' caught off Spanish beach

Biologists caught a seven-foot shark that had become a tourist attraction by making daily incursions into knee-high water on a Spanish beach, wrestling it with their bare hands and dragging it ashore.

The 110 pound sandbar shark - not generally associated with attacks on humans - first showed up early last week at Miracle beach in north-east Tarragona province, forcing authorities to close the water to bathers.
