police have ended their search along the west side of the Yorke Peninsula
for the remains of a young Adelaide man believed to have been taken by
a shark.
A damaged windsurfer harness and parts of a badly-slashed wetsuit will be taken to Adelaide for forensic tests. Police say the 22-year-old from North Adelaide was on holiday with friends and had been windsurfing in the Hardwicke Bay area near Minlaton. He was last seen at about 2:30pm ACST yesterday and reported missing last night. Minlaton Constable Phil Copley says a search last night involved members of the State Emergency Service, local volunteers, and the Country Fire Service. |
