A 13-year-old boy was bitten by a shark in Georgia after he and his pals reeled it in while fishing — only for it to sink its teeth into his thigh as they tried to unhook it, according to reports. The teen was on a boat with two others and his dad near Ossabaw Island, about 20 miles south of Savannah, Wednesday afternoon when he was bitten by the nearly six-foot marine predator, a horrified witness told WTOC. “I was sitting right here reading a book on the back of the boat and we saw a boat coming up and we could tell from a distance that there was trauma going on,” boater Terry Tatum said, adding that the boat docked in front of her and the child’s father was frantically seeking help.
