The shark attack occurred Thursday afternoon near Ethel Beach on Yorke Peninsula, state police said in a statement. “Unfortunately, the body of a teenager was recovered from the water,” he added. Police said they were preparing a report for the coroner, but gave no details about the attack on the young man, from a southern suburb of Adelaide.

There was a lot of blood,” the resident reported.
