Beaches have reopened for swimming after a woman was attacked by a shark on Rockaway Beach Monday evening.
Rockaway Beach was closed to swimmers Tuesday after the incident. Officials also closed Jones Beach Tuesday after a shark sighting near the shore. However, her wound was so deep that she nearly bled to death. She was identified as a Ukrainian immigrant living in Astoria. The shark bite occurred amid a rise in shark sightings at New York City and Long Island beaches due to factors including improved water quality and thriving populations of the bunker fish that sharks feed on.
