She described it as the “worst day of my life.”
“I never thought I could be attacked by a shark and was close to the shore and on a super full beach. Fortunately, my baby and I are fine,” he wrote, according to a translation. “I was urgently taken to the rescue and surgery to fix my poor bruising leg was fine. Now I just have to recover from the great scare …”.

“According to the photographs that provide us, we believe that the characteristics of the bite could be consistent with those of a shark,” Nilda told The Outlet, through E! News. “But to validate this, a series of analysis would be necessary. For this purpose, medical staff were asked for samples that, if available, would be analyzed immediately.”
Gallinari did not approach the incident.
