Police warn: 'You are paddleboarding next to approximately 15 great white sharks'
“You are paddleboarding next to approximately 15 great white sharks,” Deputy Brian Stockbridge announced via a loudspeaker.
Stockbridge was in a helicopter, flying off the coast of Dana Point in Orange County, Calif., at about 2 p.m. local time on Wednesday. And, indeed, swimming in the Pacific Ocean below and clearly visible from the air, were several great white sharks. Their fins rose menacingly from the water as they glided back and forth.
“They are advising you exit the water in a calm manner,” Stockbridge added. “The sharks are as close as the surf line.”
