A young girl got bit by a shark, her family yelling for help as her family took her out the water, the shark took a hold of her leg.“She seemed to be calm; she was so brave. This was in the section between the skyline wheel and the pier swimming area. Be careful going swimming; watch your kids with much care as possible this was in shallow water. I never thought anyone would actually get attacked with all the warnings of Myrtle beach sharks, but things can really happen SO please BE CAREFUL!” Credit: Cristy Torres via Storyful
