Second Shark Attack On Hawaiian Islands

A 16-year-old boy has suffered leg injuries after being attacked by a shark in Hawaii.

It is the second shark in a week on the Pacific islands.

A 20-year-old German tourist had her arm bitten off while snorkelling in Maui on Wednesday.

The latest attack took place on Sunday near Hilo on Hawaii island, the largest of the eight islands that make up the archipelago.

The boy was airlifted to hospital but details of his condition were not available.

Hawaii's Department of Land and Natural Resources closed the waters along the Pohoiki coastline after the attack.

Hapuna Beach, on the island's northwest shore, was also closed on Sunday after lifeguards spotted a shark.

There have now been eight shark attacks on the Hawaiian islands this year.

A PE teacher was hailed as a hero following last week's attack on the German holidaymaker.

Rick Moore, 57, jumped into the water and brought the 20-year-old woman back to shore moments after she was attacked off Palauea Beach.

There were 11 shark attacks in Hawaii last year. The last fatal attack was in 2004.
