Giant Tiger Shark spotted near swimmers in South Beach

Miami, Fla. — A man flying a drone over Miami's South beach the morning after Thanksgiving spotted an unwanted visitor, a huge tiger shark.

Kenny Melendez told the Miami Herald he decided to let his drone follow the shark around as it swam up to unsuspecting swimmers. Although the shark was swimming a few feet away from people,  they seemed to have not noticed its fin circling the area. Melendez said he was not standing close enough to warn the people about the danger approaching them.

Miami Beach’s Ocean Rescue chief Vince Canosa, said he could not rule out the possibility it was a different species of shark.
