A man was bitten by a shark while surfing Sunday in New Smyrna Beach.
Volusia County Beach Safety Ocean Rescue says it happened around 1 p.m. just south of the New Smyrna Beach Jetty.
Officials say the 24-year-old man from Miami was surfing in waist-deep water when he was bitten in the foot.
He said he saw the 6-foot shark feeding on bait fish right before he was a bit.
His injuries were non-life-threatening and he was not hospitalized.
