LEWES, Del. — A 12-year-old boy has been hospitalized after he was possibly bitten by a shark in Delaware.
The Daily Times of Salisbury, Maryland, reports that the incident occurred Thursday at a beach along Cape Henlopen State Park.
The incident has prompted officials to close the park’s Herring Point to surfing and swimming until further notice.
The child was surfing when something bit his leg.
He was rushed to a hospital and treated for puncture wounds. Experts are trying to figure out what kind of creature left the bite marks.
