SYDNEY, Australia (AP) - A shark attacked and killed a 16-year-old boy Tuesday while he and a friend were bodyboarding off Australia's eastern coast, officials said.
Peter Edmonds was about 50 yards from shore when the shark attacked around 8 a.m., lifeguard spokesman Stephen Leahy said.
Edmonds suffered two large bites, one to the leg and one to the body. He died of extreme blood loss while lifeguards and paramedics tried to save him.
