Perth shark attack: Rare kill order issued as victim identified as Greg O'Neill
A rare catch-and-kill order has been issued for a great white shark off the coast of Western Australia after 63-year-old swimmer Greg O'Neill was killed at a popular beach on Friday. His body has still not been found.
Authorities have said that beaches along the state's coast, including in the capital Perth, will remain closed until at least Sunday as the search for the shark continues.
It is the second shark attack in Western Australia (WA) this week, and the third fatal attack in the state this year.
The incident, at Sorrento Beach in Perth's north, has reignited debate about how to keep beachgoers safe in Australia.

A man was killed by a shark as he swam off a Western Australian city beach Friday while beachgoers watched in horror.
Boats and helicopters searched the ocean off Sorrento Beach in Perth's northern suburbs after the late-morning attack, a police statement said. Police would not say whether potential remains had been found.
But police were confident the "swimmer died as a result of the attack," the statement said.
A witness to the attack, identified only as Darrel, told Nine Network television that the victim had been swimming with a now traumatized friend.
"I was just shocked. I mean, I feel for his mate. He's apologized and said 'I didn't save my mate,'" Darrel told Nine.
