Four people were attacked by sharks over the Fourth of July holiday. Three of the four attacks took place on South Padre Island, Texas. Police responded after a 911 caller reported that one person had a severe shark bite to the leg. All three people were reportedly taken to the hospital.

In New Smyrna Beach, Florida, a 21-year-old man was bitten by a shark while playing football in only knee-deep water. His injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.
