Two men were bitten by sharks in separate incidents in southern Florida in the last week, officials said.
A 35-year-old man fishing off a dock in Summerland Key, an island in the Florida Keys, was reportedly bitten in the foot by a shark, the Monroe County Sheriff's Office said Saturday. The shark was reportedly out of the water and on the dock when it bit the fisherman on Friday around 8 p.m.
The man was flown to a hospital for treatment. Officials did not specify his condition.
