Man critical, beaches closed after shark *******

A man has been rushed to hospital with critical injuries after being attacked by a shark.

Bystanders used makeshift tourniquets to treat the man’s wounds after he was bitten in the leg at North Shore Beach, near Port Macquarie on the NSW mid-north coast.

Emergency services were called to the scene about 11am on Tuesday after reports of shark *******.

A man believed to be aged in his 20s was taken to Port Macquarie Hospital with a leg injury.

He was in a critical but stable condition.

Beachgoers and a surfer were treating the man when lifeguards arrived from nearby Town Beach, Port Macquarie-Hastings lifeguards said in a statement on social media.

Nearby beaches will be closed for at least 24 hours.
