itness Neil Cameron told the ABC the teenager had several small puncture marks on his lower arm. . . .He says the boy and his father paddled back out to warn him other surfers of the danger. . . “His dad had the idea – he wanted to get him back in the water. Otherwise he reckoned … he’d never get him in the water again,” he said.
