Authorities said Sunday a man is missing after a shark attacked him while swimming off the Marin County coast.
Marin County firefighters responded and determined that three men who had gone for a swim encountered a shark which attacked one of them. The others swam back to shore and told first responders there was a large pool of blood in the water.
Authorities told KPIX that the three swimmers were camping with a group of about 10 to 15 people above the beach. It's unclear what type of shark attacked the swimmer. The Coast Guard says they'll continue to search into the overnight hours as long as the weather conditions allow them.Da Lin is an award-winning journalist at KPIX 5 News.
