A man spear fishing with his father off Pebble Beach in California was attacked by a great white shark and suffered major bite wounds to his right thigh. They applied a tourniquet to his leg to stem “massive blood loss,” said a statement from the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office. A sheriff’s department helicopter flew overhead afterward and may have spotted the shadowy body of the 15-foot shark. Azatian and his father were fishing several hundred yards offshore, at Stillwater Cove in Monterey County, when Azatian was attacked. “It didn’t look good.”“It was a shock for me,” Grigor’s father, Armen Azatian, told KSBW-8 TV.
