The sight of Morro Rock has greeted countless visitors to this part of California's Central Coast for centuries, from the European explorers who came to the area enticed by its calm waters, to the modern-day surfers who ride the swells that break outside the bay. Morro Bay was once a bustling port city that primarily dealt in the shipment of dairy and beef from the local ranches in the area.

"British sailors are being warned to be cautious after a sailboat was rammed by orcas off the coast of northern Spain, marking a rare incident in the Basque Country."

The bite occurred around 4:15 p.m. in the water at the Central Mall beachfront of Jones Beach State Park when an unidentified woman was bitten on her left foot and leg by "unknown marine wildlife." Jones Beach State Lifeguards and Emergency Medical staff transported her to Nassau County University Medical Center Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
