A seven-year-old Arkansas boy is
recovering from severe foot injuries he received in an apparent
shark attack at Gulf Shores, Alabama.
Trenton Martin of Oden underwent surgery for a severed artery
and tendons his right foot and numerous deep cuts.
The boy was in waist-deep water Friday afternoon, looking for
shells with his grandfather when he felt something bump him about
six times. Trenton`s mother says the shark bit her son once, let go
and then bit him a second time, shaking and pulling his foot.
The family plans to return home to Arkansas tomorrow.
