Fatal Shark Attack Claims Woman's Life at Mexican Beach Resort
A fatal shark attack has been reported at a beach resort in Mexico's Pacific coast, with a woman found deceased by emergency responders in Melaque Bay, Cihuatlán.
Authorities, who have yet to identify the victim, revealed she had suffered a severed leg, suggesting a shark was responsible.
The tragedy coincided with a swim race in Jalisco state's bay area. Unverified social media footage shows an individual with a missing leg being rescued from the water.

Both Cihuatlán and nearby La Huerta municipal governments have issued alerts on Facebook, emphasizing public safety and reporting a shark near Jalisco's southern coast.
