A 44-year-old American woman, who was honeymooning in the Bahamas, was bitten by a shark while rowing near Cable Beach on Monday.
The tourist was accompanied by her husband, who emerged unscathed from the encounter with the shark. The woman was pulled from the water by a lifeguard from the Sandals Royal Bahamian Resort and brought to safety.
According to police, rescuers performed resuscitation maneuvers on the tourist, but the injuries she suffered on the right side of her body were too serious.
