The attack happened about 6 p.m. a little south of Moonlight Beach in San Diego County. Authorities closed access to the water a mile north and south of the area.
A young man reported being attacked by a shark Wednesday evening south of Moonlight Beach in Encinitas, though authorities believe the animal “aggressively bumped” him rather than bit him.
The victim, described only as a young man who was surfing or body boarding, was taken by medics to Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas with a cut on his foot, Giles said.
