WATCH: Shark caught, released off Galveston coast

GALVESTON, Texas – A scary sight caught on camera off the coast of Galveston Wednesday.

A  viewer posted a video on the KPRC 2 Facebook page take from near 61st Street along the sea wall. The video shows two men reeling in a 6-foot shark that snagged on their line while fishing.

Several people stood by and watched them pull the shark onto the rocks and measure it.

"Oh, they caught it," a man is heard saying.

The men later released the shark back into the water. It appeared unharmed in the video.
