Authorities have ordered a shark be destroyed after it killed a man in an attack close to shore at a popular Perth beach. It was the second shark attack in Western Australia in days, with emergency services called to Sorrento Beach about 10.30am on Friday after reports of a swimmer in distress. A 5 metre great white has been spotted in the area, but it's unclear if it's the shark responsible. | Subscribe and 🔔: http://9Soci.al/KM6e50GjSK9 | Get more breaking news at nine.com.au FOLLOW 9News Australia ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/9News/ ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/9NewsAUS ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/9news/ Join 9News for the latest in news and events that affect you in your local city, as well as news from across Australia and the world. #BREAKINGNEWS #9NEWS #AUSTRALIA
