"I just felt something, I guess, bite me and there was a shark on my arm. I was only in waist-deep water. I kept pushing at it to get it off my arm, and it did," one of the victims, identified as Karren Sites of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, told WPDE. One of the victims said she was swimming along this stretch of water in Myrtle Beach, S.C., on Monday when she was bitten by a shark.

Sites said she was in the water around noon when the shark approached her and her 8-year-old grandson Brian. "I couldn’t even see the shark coming up, but all I saw was the shark jumped up, and it didn’t even bite all the way, like I saw the movement of the tail go to the side, and then she screamed a little bit and as soon as she touched it, it fell into the water," Brian told WPDE.
