A North Carolina high school student reportedly underwent 14 hours of reconstructive hand surgery Friday after being attacked by a shark last Sunday off the Atlantic Coast at Fort Macon State Park.

Paige Winter, 17, who had one leg amputated above the knee and suffered damage to both hands in the attack, was doing “extremely well” after her latest surgery, doctors said, according to WITN-TV of Washington, N.C.
