Man injured in suspected WA shark attack

He was taken to Hedland Health Campus by ambulance under priority one conditions.

A WA Country Health Service spokesman said the man was in a stable condition but was unable to provide further information about his injuries.

The Royal Flying Doctor Service has dispatched a crew and it's believed the man will be transferred to Perth for surgery.

Fisheries officials are yet to confirm details of the incident but said they had received a report of a possible offshore shark bite incident.

St John WA said the extent of the man's injuries was yet to be confirmed.
