Shark killed 16-year-old high school student who was found dead by fishermen, Jamaica police say

A shark attacked and killed a 16-year-old Jamaican high school student whose body was found in waters just north of the island, authorities said.

Police identified the victim as Jahmari Reid from the northern parish of Trelawny, located just east of the popular tourist town of Montego Bay.

The teen apparently went spearfishing alone early Monday, with fishermen finding his body the following day with injuries consistent with a shark attack, police said in a report late Tuesday.
