MAN’S ARM DISGORGED
SHARK IN COOGEE AQUARIUM. SIGHT HORRIFIES VISITORS. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Rec. 1.30 a.m. Sydney, April 25. Visitors to the Coogee aquarium today were horrified when a 14 feet shark, caught a week ago for exhibition, suddenly disgorged the arm of a man on which was tattooed the picture of a boxer. The tattooing, the police believe, will assist in the identification of the man. The limb was in a comparatively good state of preservation and bore teeth marks near the shoulder, where it had been wrenched from the victim’s body. Portions of another shark and bones were ejected at' the same time. The shark has refused to eat since its capture.
