NEW YORK — Two more shark encounters were reported on Long Island Wednesday, including an attack on a teenager, officials said.
A dead shark, which appeared to be a great white according to The Riverhead Society, was spotted on Dune Road Beach in Quogue, New York, by a nearby resident around 9:33 a.m., police said.
"At this time, we are cautioning swimmers and boaters in the area to be aware of this ongoing situation," the police said in a statement. Suffolk County Police Aviation responded by helicopter, but the water was too murky to locate the shark, officials said. Marine Bureau officers continued to comb the water on boats to locate the shark, according to police.
