    Andrew Eddy, 30, was on a snorkeling trip with his pregnant wife, Margot Dukes-Eddy and her family at Sombrero Reef in the Florida Keys. But as Eddy had just slid into the water, a large shark latched onto his shoulder.

    30岁的安德鲁.艾迪与怀孕的妻子玛戈.杜克斯—艾迪及她的家人,在(美国)佛罗里达州礁岛布雷罗礁享受一场浮潜之旅。但艾迪一入海,一只大鲨鱼就咬住他的肩膀。

    "Dukes saw the shark’s dorsal fin and then blood filling the water. Dukes, without hesitation, dove into the water and pulled Eddy to the safety of the boat," the police wrote in his report.

    警方在报告中指出:「杜克斯先看到鲨鱼背鳍,接着血水染红大海。她毫不迟疑地跳入水中,把艾迪拉到安全的船上。」

    Dukes managed to avoid injury during the rescue, but the police described Eddy’s shark bite wound as severe.

    Several other snorkelers from other boats were already in the water when the attack happened, the police wrote. Other boaters said they had seen a bull shark in the area that morning, which they estimated to be as much as 2.7 meters long.(AP)
