Alexandre Ressica, 22, of La Reunion died (Monday, July 23, 2012) after having his leg bit off by a shark, according to a story in The Australian.
Fellow surfers were able to haul Alexandre Rassica, a 22-year-old local, back to the beach at Trois-Bassins on the west of the island after the attack. But when paramedics arrived he was in a state of cardiac arrest, officials said.
This is retiredly the sixth attack on humans in the past year. Our thoughts are with Rassica’s family and friends.
