Boca Raton Ocean Rescue told a local newspaper that the woman remained calm and there was a little blood. A splint board was used to support the woman's arm and the shark as she waited on the stretcher, according to The Associated Press.
The woman, with the dead shark still on her arm, was taken to the Boca Raton Regional Hospital in stable condition.
