Great white shark scare a hoax
Last week I read a story about how the beaches on Martha’s Vineyard were closed due to a shark scare. Today I was reading on MSNBC.NBC.com that the reason they were closed was that a 60 year old man had claimed to see two large great white sharks swimming near the beach while he was working on a fishing boat. As a precaution the beaches were closed to swimmers. Upon further investigation, the authorities asked the man what boat he was working on. The man told them the name of a boat and the name of the boat owner; neither one exist. So that has been determined to be a hoax, and the man has been charged with disorderly conduct.
