From the Associated Press
Beaches in San Diego County that were closed after a deadly shark attack will be reopened today, authorities said.
At least eight miles of seafront were closed over the weekend following Friday’s attack, in which 66-year-old retired veterinarian David Martin died after his legs were bitten by a shark, thought to have been a great white.
As of Sunday, there had been no sign of the fish, estimated to be about 15 feet long.
It was the first such attack in San Diego County since 1994.
