She was swimming when it happened. In the ocean.

can you confirm the ocean?

Wasn't me, I'm off Topsail headed SSE, may go back to the Stream. There wasn't nil damn body over there. I might come back in further down and hit Wrightsville, though. I won't be in the Gulf for couple months, but you'll never know when or where

Is this the 17 year old from a day or two ago?
If so, I think they said she was bitten by a five foot shark, but not terribly injured.
I think.

Witnesses said Taylor was bitten while she was waist deep in water slightly after 3:30 p.m. Sunday. Taylor had scrape wounds on her left leg as well as puncture wounds on her right leg, emergency personnel said. She needed 80 stitches.

Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office previously described her injury as “fairly minor.” It is unclear what type of shark bit Taylor, who is from Louisville, Kentucky, and was visiting Destin with her high school softball team, authorities said, the Northwest Florida Daily News reported.

If she is a Line Beard, she probably "keyed" the shark before it got away
Seriously tho, hope she is okay.

Just a flesh wound?
Seriously, as long as no limbs were severed and no major arteries were cut, I could see 80 stitches and it being viewed as fairly minor. A few stitches for each tooth mark and 80 does not seem like a big number. I was in a knife fight in my teens that looked bad and required 12 to 24 stitches but aside from the scar, not a big deal.

She didn't lose a limb, but got several stitches. She was swimming with friends from her softball team (they were down for a spring break tournament) and got bit. She managed to punch the shark a few times to get it to back off and they got her to shore.

Sounds like a Shively girl, love Shively girls!
You can't get Shively without a shiv.

Probably being used as bait by some UK fishermen.

Waist deep = barely dick deep.
What if the shark thinks it's going for the head?
Welp, my days on the sandbar are over.. It was a good run.
