This happened Kona side. Story on Hawaii News Now last night.
"The shark, as a matter of fact, her name is Laverne, the shark is actually tagged and is a local resident of the area who gets fed on a regular basis by the fisherman of the Kona harbor. She's used to being in there and this kid took advantage of the situation." said Oriana Kalama, who founded the non-profit Maui-based organization Ocean Defender, which is committed to sea animal protection.
