Woman bitten twice by shark

A woman was bitten not once, but twice by a shark while swimming in Volusia County.

NEW SMRYNA BEACH, Fla. - A 50-year-old woman was bit by a shark at New Smyrna Beach on Thursday morning, officials said.

The Volusia County Beach Safety Ocean Rescue told FOX 35 that the woman, who is from Miami, was boogie-boarding at the beach when she hopped off and a shark bit her left leg.

They said that she kicked at the shark and then received a second bite on her ankle. Both bites are non-life-threatening so she was not transported to the hospital.
