A 22-year-old is recovering from an apparent shark bite.

David Morrison said he was bitten while was lying on his surf board in the water at Vilano Beach, north of St. Augustine, Tuesday.

Morrison told the St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office his legs were dangling off the board when he felt something bite his left ankle and “thrash around.”

Morrison told investigators the shark’s mouth was the size of a basketball.

Morrison's wound required 30 stitches.
