A diver is hospitalized after what authorities describe as a shark attack off Quebec’s Gaspé coast. The Canadian Coast Guard confirms the incident, saying the diver is taken to hospital after being bitten by a shark.
The events occur near Percé, off the eastern tip of the Gaspé Peninsula. Global News characterizes the animal as a great white shark, while City News Toronto describes it as an apparent white shark encounter. The reports are based on information provided by the Canadian Coast Guard. Neither outlet, in the provided accounts, specifies the diver’s condition or the circumstances leading to the bite.
Both outlets agree on the core facts: a diver is injured, the incident happens offshore near Percé in Quebec, and the Canadian Coast Guard confirms the response and hospital transfer. Differences are limited to how the shark is identified (great white versus apparent white shark).
