A 66 year old man was killed today, Friday, April 25, after a great white shark attack occurred at Solana Beach, San Diego.
The victim, David Martin, was swimming alongside fellow triathlon members at 7:00 am when the shark suddenly shot up out the water fatally wounding the father of four.
Martin was 150 yards from the shore when the shark struck, and a marine expert has described such an event in the area as “practically unprecedented.”
The eight mile stretch of water between Torrey Pines State Beach and South Carlsbad has been closed for 72 hours.
Even though beach closure signs have been posted, some swimmers are choosing to ignore them.
