On November 1, a 61-year-old surfer was critically injured after a shark attack at Waiehu Beach Park in Maui, where his leg was severed below the knee. First responders applied tourniquets to manage excessive bleeding before taking him to a local hospital. The beach area has been closed, with warnings issued to keep surfers and swimmers out of the water following the incident. Authorities have not released details about the type of shark involved. This incident follows another recent shark attack that resulted in a fatality in June.
