A man was left in critical condition by a shark attack, suffering a severe bite to his right forearm while he was fishing in Florida yesterday morning.
The man, who is in his 40s, was on a boat off Fernandina Beach, north of Jacksonville, caught the shark while fishing and tossed the fish back in the water after it bit him, Action News Jax reported.
The Nassau County Sheriff’s Office Marine Unit received a distress call over its emergency radio at 11:15 a.m. and when they reached the boat, they found the man had “lost a lot of blood,” according to a Facebook video the sheriff posted.
“Upon arrival, NCSO deputies found the victim with a critical injury. Acting swiftly, a deputy boarded the vessel and applied a tourniquet to stop the bleeding,” NCSO said on Facebook.
“The victim was immediately airlifted to a nearby hospital. He is currently listed in critical condition but is expected to recover.”
Nassau County, Florida, is about 150 miles north of Volusia County, considered the “shark bite capital of the world,” where there were 17 bites in 2021, according to the Florida Museum of Natural History’s International Shark Attack File.
Individuals in the state suffered 16 attacks last year, or 44% of all of the attacks in the US.

South Florida Football: Is Byrum Brown A Heisman Long Shot?
![South Florida Football: Is Byrum Brown A Heisman Long Shot?](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_crop,w_6000,h_3375,x_0,y_0/c_fill,w_1440,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/images/ImagnImages/mmsport/g5_football_daily/01j1hx2ceysk87420hqg.jpg)
One intriguing storyline to follow throughout the 2023 college football season was the dramatic improvement of the South Florida Bulls under Alex Golesh. In Golesh’s first season as the program’s head coach, the Bulls improved to 7-6 after a 1-11 season in 2022.
A big reason for that was the emergence of sophomore quarterback Byrum Brown. The 6’3″ 209-pound North Carolina native already owns 12 program records at USF. While he may be a Heisman long shot, it’s impossible to deny his impact on the program.

In 2023, Brown and Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels were the only players to post at least 3,000 yards passing and 800 yards rushing. Now, Bet365 gives Brown 250/1 odds to win a Heisman of his own.
Brown is not the only G5 player listed by the sportsbook and is not the G5 player with the highest odds to win the trophy. Those odds belong to Liberty’s Kaidon Salter.
RECRUITING: P4 Target Lineman Chooses South Florida
Last season, Brown averaged 253.2 passing yards per game, going over 300-yards in a game four times. Only 19 years old, Brown’s best days are likely ahead of him as well.
South Florida are set to open the 2024 campaign on August 31 at 7 PM against Bethune Cookman.
