Nguyen Minh Tuan, a teacher from Quy Nhon University, bitten by fish while swimming in the sea, was rushed to hospital, in emergency, on Jan 9th.

Local fishermen say that they sometimes catch “nham” fish, a kind of shark, weighing around 10-15kg each, and this was probably the source of the attack.
