TL;DR

Two people were bitten by a shark at a Volusia County beach in Florida. A surfer in his 30s was bitten on his left hand while riding the waves near Ponce Inlet Jetty, and a 37-year-old woman was bitten on her right foot while swimming in waist-deep waters. Both victims sustained non-life threatening injuries and received medical attention. Volusia County is known for having a high number of shark bites, but this year has seen an unusually low number of incidents.
