FWC investigates dead sharks dumped at Titusville park

TITUSVILLE, Fla. — Wildlife officials are looking to find out who has been dumping dead sharks at a Titusville park recently.

Florida Fish and Wildlife officials said that they received a tip about someone dumping sharks next to the Indian River at Kennedy Point Park.

Recreational fishing regulations allow a catch limit of just one shark per person per day.

Officers removed three dead sharks from the shore there Thursday. Each one was about 2-feet long.

Officials say the animals will be taken to a lab where they'll determine what kind of sharks they are and how old they were. It's unknown exactly how long the carcasses had been left there.

Officials are seeking any information about the incident. People can call the fish kill hotline at 800-636-0511.
