US shark attacks: Teenagers injured off North Carolina coast

Two teenagers have been badly injured in separate shark attacks at a popular seaside resort in the United States.

A 14 year old girl was mauled while swimming off Oak Island in North Carolina on Sunday whilst a 16 year old boy was attacked on the same stretch of beach less than two hours later. Both victims suffered limb losses. The article says that they were contemplating shutting the beach to the public.

In my opinion I believe that after the first attack the beach should have been shut off as there were obviously sharks within the area. The first attack should have been enough for life guards to close the beach off and therefore the second attack would not have even happened.
