ORLEANS, Mass. (WPRI) - Officials are on alert, after more Great White Sharks have been spotted swimming in New England waters.
The latest sighting was off the coast of Orleans , Mass. on Thursday. A lifeguard with binoculars spotted a shark fin about 300 yards off shore.
Officials with the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries has confirmed two more were spotted off Chatham , Mass. Earlier in August, a shark sighting closed Horseneck Beach in Westport to swimming for a day.
