The search for an Australian man who went missing after a reported shark attack has been called off, police in the state of Western Australia said on Sunday.
Paul Millachip, 57, was swimming at Port Beach in North Fremantle, a suburb in the state's capital city Perth, when he was believed to have been attacked by a shark Saturday morning, police said. Police and surf rescue helicopters as well as water police and surf lifesaving personnel responded to reports of a "serious shark bite incident" at around 10 a.m local time.
Rescue and recovery efforts were called off Sunday afternoon, after an extensive two-day search, acting Inspector of the Fremantle District Office, Troy Douglas, told reporters during a news conference.
