A three-foot shark washed up on the shore at Jax Beach Saturday and gave beachgoers yet another reason to be on alert when swimming in the ocean this summer.

The shark was found on the shore around 11 a.m. Beachgoers said the shark appeared to have been caught by a fisherman and thrown back into the water. Beach patrol picked up the shark and removed it from the beach.

In those attacks, a 12-year-old girl from Asheboro, N.C. lost part of her arm and suffered a leg injury, and a 16-year-old boy from Colorado Springs had to have his arm amputated.
