A shark and a cold case

In response to the news item I posted yesterday, about the young man in Australia who was reunited with his leg after a shark bit it off, friend and commenter Mick referred me to the incredible story of a shark that vomited up a human arm in the Coogee Aquarium Baths in Australia in 1935, and the resulting murder investigation. The story has everything: homicide, a failed suicide attempt, a second murder, and a continuing unsolved mystery (technically unsolved; I think everybody knows who was responsible).

  1. A shark ate a shark that ate a man's arm that apparently was already severed by a knife. You don't see a story like that every day.

  2. It's not just wombats and bushrangers over here, folks.
