Ocean safety officers at the scene transported Mr Carter to the shore after he suffered injuries during a “shark encounter.” “Once onshore, life-saving measures were performed by first responder personnel until medic personnel arrived to transport the male to the Maui Memorial Medical Center for further treatment,” the law enforcement agency said in a statement. It was hard to hear him screaming.” Baldwin Beach Park and Lower Pā’ia Park were closed following the shark incident as responders patrolled the area on shore and on jet skies. Eight shark encounters were reported in Hawaii in 2023, per NBC, but Saturday’s attack was the first fatality.
