"I just see a lot of people just stand up instantly, automatically, and then instantly going back all the way to the boardwalk," witness Justin Duffy said."The lady's on the stretcher. She's bleeding on the leg," a witness said."I see one big bite and one little one," the person said.: Shark attack survivor Lyudmila Emag speaks out about being bitten on July 4:"I felt like I was in a trap"
Far Rockaway locals said they were surprised to hear of a shark attack at the beach because the water is usually pretty barren. "There's nothing here. You don't really see any fish. It's just sand, like a big desert under there," Vessial said.There has already been at least five reported shark attacks at New York beaches this summer. Last year, there were at least eight reported shark attacks in the state."We hope for a full recovery for this swimmer. Though this was a frightening event, we want to remind New Yorkers that shark bites in Rockaway are extremely rare.
