Video taken by surfers at Linda Mar Beach in Pacifica on Sunday morning shows a shark, very close to shore, making breakfast of a seal. KRON 4 picked up the news, and got requisitely dramatic about the fact that this was happening so close to where people were surfing. No one was injured, but it is a reminder that sharks do sometimes come near our beaches, and that surfing is not without its hazards.

The video shows the shark flailing around a bit as it attacks the seal, and bits of reddish water appearing.

The surfing family with three kids shown in KRON 4's video spoke to the Examiner as well, with mom Stephani Ebinger reporting that everyone started paddling quickly into shore as soon as one surfer spotted the shark's fin. A shark, possibly the same one, was also spotted at the same beach, roughly 80 yards offshore, last Thursday.
