Almost six years ago, a 13-year-old lobster diver was nearly killed by a 12-foot great white shark while diving off Beacon's Beach in Encinitas with his friend.

“I feel for them. I understand kind of what they are going through. Obviously, it is a very scary time, and I went through that,“ Keane Hayes said

One of the witnesses who was in the water when a shark attacked a swimmer off the coast of Del Mar described the tense moments. The 46-year-old swimmer was bit several times on Sunday morning, but the injuries are not believed to be life-threatening. NBC 7's Kelvin Henry reports on June 3, 2024. Despite the near-death encounter, Hayes could not give up his true love: the ocean. He was back in it three months after the attack.
