A 16-year-old girl was killed Saturday after being mauled by a shark as she swam in a river in Western Australia, officials said.
The girl was critically injured when an unknown species of shark bit her in the Swan River in the Perth suburb of Fremantle, a state government statement said.
“It’s very early on, what we’re being advised is that she was with friends on the river,” he told a news conference.
