Written by Teunis Felter

A police boat has rescued a man after a shark bit the back off his kayak and left him sinking off the coast near Brisbane, Australia. Police said the 39-year-old man made an emergency phone call from his damaged water craft that was taking water after the attack on Sunday in Moreton Bay off the Queensland coast. Police retrieved the man and his formerly 6.5-meter kayak that was missing its stern on Sunday afternoon.
