Onlookers captured the predator on their phones as it swam near the Port of Palma in Mallorca.
Police were called and reportedly tried to get a noose around its neck, but failed.
Authorities had to use boats to direct the animal back out into the open water.
The sea monster was later identified as a blue shark, who can grow up to 11.5ft long.
Typical media-driven hysteria. Inform yourselves at “http://www.sharktrust.org/en/press_shark_attacks”
Huge, Giant, “grows up to 11.5 feet”. Right.
A pike dissing a shark! :-)
