- A 16-year-old girl died after being attacked by a shark. It happened in a river in Perth, Australia. The girl was pulled from the water with critical injuries and died shortly after. “Some life preserving measures were put on the female but unfortunately she was pronounced deceased at the scene,” said Acting Police Inspector Paul Robinson. “The investigation is still ongoing, it is very very early stages however all indications, by witness accounts, is that it appears to be a shark related incident."

This breaks my heart , and by the looks of the police officer broke his too. This is so close to home! Sending condolences to the family.
Yeah I would say the office had it's heart broke too!!!!
It’s so sad but I don’t understand why would you jump in the first place:(. Rest in peace.
@julioregalado1209 kids having fun/: tragic. She probably has done that before in other rivers and thought she'd be okay. Or maybe she really got intrigued by the dolphins. Its hard to say what goes inside a 16yo most times but i remember myself at 16/17 almost dying while swimming in the ocean and the waves were too big and almost drowned, but I've done it so many times i didn't think much of it. There's also lots of dolphins where I'm from and people love swimming with them.. i feel so sad for this young lady not being more cautious but when you're young you just enjoying life to the fullest not thinking about the what ifs 😪🙏🏻
@@RunMf01 I jumó into river all the time it’s called having fun going for a swim ya know
Natural selection. "Don't press this button" *16 year old presses button*

No. That family should be charged for negligence.
Mine goes out to the shark.

@富士 I mean, just imagine you're minding your own business, and then this hairless monkey jumps in your domain? Probably scared the poor thing half to death.

My heart breaks for this sweet girl, and her loved ones. May God wrap them all so tight in his bright, shining light. This officer did a really good job reporting this tragedy. Very heartfelt, and compassionate whilst being knowledgeable. Praying.
God isn’t real, so she’s probably just gonna rot in the ground, but yeah
I don’t know what other shark would’ve attacked her in an Australian River other than a Bull. I love sharks and appreciate them, but gosh that’s a scary way to die. My heart goes out to her friends and family.
What was the point in posting this? We understand that it had to been a bull shark.. just pray in silence and stop being original with comments like this..
@@THC57838 it’s still good to share your thoughts.
I love all sharks other than bulls they're extremely aggressive because they're the apex predator of shallow waters and have no competition other than juvenile bulls against barracuda so naturally they'll sink their teeth into anything they can catch which sometimes happens to be humans. That being said the great white while mostly misunderstood still has a higher human kill count than any other species of shark at 333 attacks with 52 of those attacks being fatal while the bull shark has 117 recorded attacks with only 25 fatalities.
@@THC57838 what was the point of your comment? Oh ya, just to have a comment that added nothing
@@brian6391 they’re usually very dangerous in shallow water and in rivers where the water is murky making visibility difficult. I’ve swam with them in open water and they actually tend to be quite docile, but when they can’t see very well, their instincts kick in when they spot something moving
The cop handled this news report very professionally. Seemed quite knowledgeable and well spoken.
so different than american cops.

That has to be terrifying. You're not expecting to get attacked by sharks in a river. Seeing dolphins should've let them know that it wasn't a just a freshwater river. Young kids though, they'd be too excited seeing dolphins and wouldn't be thinking about anything but how cool that was. 😥
Praying her friends and family find peace in life without her. 🙏❤
Ya but I’m also surprised the Dolphins didn’t save her. I’m more shocked at that because they would’ve killed that shark normally if there was any threat to human or one of their own.

@@donthaveaname1086 Way to be a rude ass hole 😂 just for someone expressing their opinion. Many people (like myself) didn’t even think or know that sharks swim throughout rivers. That person has a point there has been many reports that dolphins save divers from sharks. It was a sincere question.

Heartbreaking. Condolences to her family and friends.
Sincere condolences to those who know and love this girl.
As a Brit, I honestly can't even imagine the terror that this poor kid must've gone through. I'm so sorry, my heart aches for the family ❤️
Omg I didn’t realize sharks swam in rivers. 😮wow I’m so sorry to her and her family
They do but this happened at the mouth
unfortunately in Australia, there bull sharks in the canals and rivers
Me neither but there was a sign there never the less tragic af...my heart aches for her friends and love ones
I didn't know either. I bet the teen didn't know also
Me neither! So awful
Dying to shark is extremely rare. Statistically, you're more likely to die from lightning than a shark which makes this death even more unfortunate.
It’s common if u jump into a river wit sharks in it
The vast majority of people spend 99.99% of their lives on land.
Spend a lot more time in the ocean and you'll see your chances of being eaten by a shark sky rocket through the roof.
Those statistics change when you jump into the water
there's more chance to be killed by a cow then shark
That's idiotic stat n makes no sense
Man that just seems like a horrible way to die…I’ll be praying for her family!
It's so surprising how brave a 16 year old girl can be over me as I would be afraid to dunk a toe in that water. That being said sadly I think it's out of ignorance or lack of knowledge of what's under the depths that can kill you. This has to be one of the scariest ways to die as you're not only dealing with the pain and horror from the shark biting you but also getting pulled under and drowned at the same time. That has to be such a hopeless, scary situation. Feel horrible for the girl. 🙏🏻
I mean that sign said sharks but if you don't speak English and don't know better I would've thought the picture ment helicopter
@@eyyymanuel all people know who means "shark" she just stupid
@@eyyymanuel Didn't they put up that sign after she died?
its better to be afraid than stupid
Sharks don't really pull people under like the movies. They bite to weaken you, swim away and then repeat if they want to eat you.
A pod of dolphins is often a very good indication of sharks being nearby.
I didn't know that
This isn't common knowledge.
Omg I had no clue😳
wow 😢 so sorry for the family, friends, and people of the community for this terrible loss.. god bless her soul to be sent to whichever afterlife she believed in. ❤
Note to self don’t ever jump into any body of water in Australia
Insects and animals on land too
I thought sharks only lived in saltwater.
@@cyndimorgan9792 they occasionally swim in freshwater too. Same as crocodiles also swim in saltwater sometimes
@@cyndimorgan9792 the rules don’t apply in Australia 😂
It’d be safer to just never go at all at this point
This is so sad . My heart goes out to the family . The news reporting just keeps getting sadder . Life is so short these days .
My deepest condolences to the family and friends.
People need to start making smarter decisions, but yes rest in peace to the baby girl.
The shark got a good meal

Maybe the person who put up the sign saying sharks in water could have anticipated it. Or anyone who read it.
@@EnjoySackLunch I don't think that sign was up until after this incident. If you can prove otherwise I'd agree with you.

I thought this was absolutely crazy until I realized this happened in Australia.
That is sad to hear 😢. Deepest condolences to her loved ones.
poor child :( RIP to family and loved ones, thinking of you all, love from Turkey.

this is why every time your going to jump in the water you look for signs for any danger
what if you did not see any danger

Hold up let me just call my cousin Superman over here to X-ray all this water

So sorry for the family's loss. I am from Barbados. I do not swim anywhere that I cannot see my feet clearly.
Down right Sad , very sad Remember all the joy this young lady brought to you, family & friends From Colorado in the US. 💐🕊️💕🕊️💐
Prayers go out to the family
I’m sorry this young girl lost her life that’s absolutely terrible 😢 on holidays. I swim in this exact spot in the river and didn’t even know there were sharks there.
It's bay that goes out to sea bull sharks can be in ocean and freshwater as well
I probably wouldn’t swim there for a while
It's salt water that meets the ocean, daft or what🤣🤣
It's Australia everything deadly lives everywhere wym
@@juliaweber212this is what was confusing to me in the report. How did a shark end up in a river? But if it’s actually “The bay”, that makes total sense.
I was confused about a shark in the river until I heard “Australia”
the accent before the word Australia being mentioned wasn’t a dead giveaway?
nah bull sharks do it everywhere
Bull shark can survive in both fresh and salt water and notoriously swim up stream. Not just in Australia.
While Australia is indeed particularly dangerous due to not only sharks but also crocodiles (in the northern half), shark attacks in rivers happen all over the range of bull sharks. Which means any river in tropical and subtropical areas can have a bull shark swimming in it. Even colder waters like the Northeast US (New Jersey, New York) can have sharks in them.
There hasn’t been a fatality by sharks in the Swan River for over 100 years. It’s such a tragedy. I’m so sorry to all who know and love Stella.
Well obviously because of food shortage sharks can get more aggressive… it’s better we stop overfishing or destroying the coral reefs and stop climate change for warming up the sea water
I used to go to school by that river. Only ever saw jellyfish carcasses and swans there 😢😮
This young woman was fearless..That shark sign would've scared me to death. Condolences to her heartbroken family.
@cameltoe lover Well if she saw it, and ignored it, that would be even more tragic.
This is why I don't swim in any water except pools and springs. Not taking any chances whether gators, sharks, jellies, snakes, or stingrays... My condolences go to her family and friends 🙏😔🫶
Peace to all the kind people of Australia I hope you're doing well from the U.S.
It’s good news to hear that the young girl lost her life. It’s quite a bit common to hear these deaths by sharks. Anybody who chooses to jump into a dangerous river not knowing anything in it got an extremely low IQ.
Just like entering the hood. Stupid and dangerous.
We have a saying in Florida, _"Don't swim with sharks"._
So sad prayers to her family and friends❤️
One of the most horrifying ways to die. I wouldn't wish it on anyone but my worst enemy. May she rip 🙏
In Australia everything is possible, I heard alligator were roaming on highway after flood, snake coming out of toilet, cow munching a snake, pig got drunk start fighting with cows....salute to people who lives there
No gators in Australia mate
“Alligator”
Personally you can only catch me swimming in shallow rivers or most lakes
What Baits to u bite? I might try to catch u
I’m a big lake guy
You don't think sharks swim in shallow water? They're seen in water that's only a couple of feet deep.
@@AFloridaSon but if you get got by that shark... You kinda deserve it. Even in the muddy waters of the south you got a couple feet of visibility. Atleast enough to see a huge darkness in the water.
@@williamherrington6995 get got .... call in the English teacher 📞😂
This is very sad to know that someone in our own community has died and they will never be forgotten. I do however think that we shouldn’t do anything rash to find the shark responsible for all we know it could be a different shark and they don’t know we aren’t their kind of meal until they bite us, by then it’s too late. Please don’t blame the shark or the girl for what happened that day, it’s just fate.
M
Dumb ah mf he got what he got
Kill the shark. Human lives matter more.
No fate unfortunately. Stupidity.
I have never thought killing an animal that's killed a human is good to do. Why do they do that? Is it a revenge thing?
Condolences to the family. That is a terrible thing for anyone to see and go through
She died days ago it’s so sad….. PLEASE IF A RIVER IS CLOSED THERE’S A REASON WHY YOU CANT SWIM IN THERE…… PLEASE DONT RISK YOUR LIFE AND LOSING BLOOD IS NOT WORTH IT…… RIP STELLA B. ❤️! IDK WHAT GOD WANTS FROM YOU BUT HE TOOK YOU TOO SOON….. 😢
It was closed after the shark attack
Stop victim blaming
@@johndurrer7869literally.
IT WAS CLOSED AFTER THE FACT.
It's pathetic of you to blame the victim who had no idea there were sharks there
You don't just say "the river is closed" when no one knew there was a Shark in the first place
This is y CHILDREN should not go UNSUPERVISED
The moment I saw the title I thought this is in Australia. RIP 🙏🏻
At first I saw the title and I was like: "a shark in a RIVER? WTF!!?!"
Then I saw it was Australia and I was like "Oh. I see"
Lol me too.. I thot to myself 'the lies!' 🤣
Rest In Peace. Remember to always look out for signs before you jump in water. It will save your life
What signs would’ve possibly saved her?
@@kjb6637 The one in the thumbnail. Plus its good safety to look for signs anyways
@@Frightmarelordofthenightmares which is right
I thought they put up that sign after she died...
I'm so deeply sorry
Rest in peace.
Poor kid...just trying to have fun. My sympathies to the family and friends. Rest in peace child.
Omg this is so sad ❤😢
Horrible,,, so sad,,,prayers for her. 🙏🏻
That is sad, and nature is unforgiving and isn't bias. It was most certainly a bull shark, we have them here and my town is just a few miles north where the largest river in the state dumps into the ocean and we have found them 200+ miles inland. My condolences to the friends and family, that must have been horrific and life altering for those who witnessed it.
Aww, prayers for her family and friends
This is so sad. Prayers to the family. Was interesting to watch. Great video
Shark in a river is crazy I thought they were only in oceans
River leads to ocean
Probably not enough food, ocean is dying so it'll go anywhere it can to find some
That absolutely sucks 😕
The thumbnail confuses me is it a River as the title says or is it a beach in thumbnail warning sign?
Also on the warning sign, is that a shark shaped helicopter?
@@Ducky69247 😂
It’s the Swan River, this beach just happens to be inland.
Rip young girl.😢
A woman was literally trying to tell me yesterday that sharks don't usually attack people. I was like, "yeah...ok."
they dont attack till they find meat 😁
This is so sad, my heart goes out to her family.
Whoever's reading this, I pray that whatever you're going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day!
thank u needed this🥺
At first, when I read "girl dies from shark attack in river", I was like "Huh?". But then I saw "Australia" and I was like "Ah. Okay".
When it comes to Australia, you could tell me "Person dies from shark attack in tree" and I'd say "Makes sense".
Rip and condolences to her friends and family
This is why you dont get in water when there is a sign that says no swimming
It had to be either Australia or Florida…
At first I was like "shark attack? In a RIVER?!" Then I realized it was in Australia, so the shock effect was gone
damn that’s deep
The water probably wasn't
@@Ego-Fiend bro.
We live in the wild folks. Dont let the skyscrapers and cars fool you. We live in the wild.
Sad
It was probably a Bull Shark. They live in freshwater all over the world, even hundreds and thousands of miles from the ocean. They're extremely violent and don't need to be provoked to attack.
Wow this is VERY rare the most people don’t die from this at all
That has to be the scariest way to go. Horrible.
The jaws irl😳
Shark researchers: He don’t bite
Almost like, we're invading their homes :O
That splash makes the sharks curious, but it wasn't her fault RIH Babygirl. My condolences for the family.
This is horrible. My condolences to the family.
One of the many Reasons why even though I can swim, I don't.
You can swim in the pool lol

Only in Australia do you find the strangest animals in the wildest of places…
Yeah, imagine finding *sharks* in *water* anywhere else
It's not like there is Sharks ANYWHERE else in the world
The warmer and more humid the climate, the nastier and more dangerous the wildlife. Where I am there's never ice or snow but it's mostly dry heat and we have packs of coyotes all over the place and snakes in the hills.
Before 2021 there hasn't been a shark death at that spot in 30 years. So tragic. Rip to a beautiful young soul.
Ah, yes, Australia
Prayers for the family
RIP 💔 🙏
Australia continues to scare me.. this is so sad.
R.I.P to this girl.. 🪦🪦
Oh God have mercy 😔🙏
We send our condolences to the family and pray for your peace and acceptance.
It's true, Bull Sharks swim up stream in fresh water rivers, some as far as 100 miles. They adapt to both salt and fresh but prefer salt water. In the US , back in the early 1900s, in the state of New Jersey , 4 people were killed by a Bull Shark in one week up river !!! Look it up .
Very sorry for the families loss
There’s signs there for a reason, poor girl though- I guess it’s a lesson learned to never go to dangerous places or you may end up in great danger. May she RIP 💔😔
No
Did they put the signs up AFTER the attack? Was it up before she went into the water and she didn't follow the signs?
Most likely before
They put up the signs after the attack i swim there alot an there has never been signs
@@crayzfish7819 that is what I was thinking. As soon as the attack happened they put the signs up to keep anyone else informed.
This is too much bad luck..poor kid ... To have her life taken away so unexpectedly...
I was just down the river 😔
In Texas there is an unverified story of a bull shark being found a hundred miles up river from the Gulf of Mexico. It is something one just always has to be aware of.
My heart goes out to the family.
Australians why not invest in further developing hover boards? If I was Australian I would never even touch the earth when I leave my home since every other thing can kill or maim you.
But then we’d be hovering in magpie territory, God help us then.
What a load of rubbish
😂
magpies would slaughter us 😔
It honestly blows my mind that Australians dont understand how deadly their country is.
Dont go in the water
So what we never go in the water cause there’s sharks? You take that risk when you go in the water. This happened in a river way upstream from where the water meets the ocean, so the attack is a shock.
