Swimmer, 65, killed in shark attack off South Africa's east coast

A South African woman has been killed in a shark attack off the country's east coast, in what is the first recorded such fatality this year. Janine Lochrenberg was swimming off a beach in KuGompo City (formerly East London) on Tuesday morning when she was attacked. Witnesses said the 65-year-old was bitten in two places and died before she was brought to shore. Shark attacks are rare in South Africa, with fewer than 10 fatal ones since 2012, according to the Florida Museum's International Shark Attack File. Lochrenberg was out on a daily morning swim with her local open water swimming club when she was attacked at around 08:00 (06:00 GMT). Fellow swimmers brought her to shore, but it's believed she died before they could get her out of the water.
