NORTH SHORE
Beachgoers warned about shark sighting at Chun's Reef

Warning signs were posted yesterday after a lifeguard spotted a shark in waters off Chun's Reef on the North Shore.

The shark was seen shortly after noon and the signs were immediately put up on the beach, said Bryan Cheplic, spokesman for the city Emergency Services Department. Cheplic said the lifeguards were unable to determine the size or type of shark.

Lifeguards will reassess the situation today to determine whether to keep the signs posted.

There were no reports of injuries or incidents involving the shark.
