The 64 -year -old woman was attacked in Beachport just before 8 am, while she swam with the local community group. He was bitten on his leg, was subjected to serious injuries. The woman was assisted by shore and first aid was given by the audience until medical officials arrived. A SA ambulance spokesman said he was taken to Gambier Mountain Hospital, approximately 85 km away from Beachport and was taken to Gambier Mountain Hospital, about 385 km south of Adelaide near the Victorian border. A employee of Beachport Hotel, where woman works, said that she swam at the same point near pier for 30 years.

She said that swimming friends helped her from water and applied a tourniquet to wounds. It is understood that a boat went into the water to buy other swimmers and move it to the shore. Beachport hotel owner Geoff Wells, Adelaide advertiser, after the attack of the small community, "shock," he said. “We are just a small community and we are all in a little shock. I have been here for eight years and there hasn't been such a thing before." The attack fought surfector Toby Begg for his life the hospital only weeks after a shark attack in Port Macquarie NSW.
