Moments after it was discovered that the shark spotted by civilians was a prank created by two children, a real shark was spotted in the pond next to the beach. James Parks of Oak Bluffs became the third victim of a shark attack when his rowboat was attacked and he was killed at about 1:30 p.m. Other than a severed leg, his remains have not been found. Chief Brody’s son was also on the rowboat at the time of the attack, but he remained unharmed other than going into severe shock, which he is now being treated for. All beaches will remain closed until further notice.
