According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the boy, Jameson Reeder Jr., was snorkeling with his family at Loo Key Reef on August 13 when he was bitten by a shark. The attack took place around 16:30 pm.
"The FWC would like to extend our sincere best wishes to Jameson Reeder Jr. and his family during his recovery," the commission said in a statement.

Jameson's uncle wrote on Facebook that the boy was able to stay afloat after the attack. His family pulled him out of the water into their boat and put a tourniquet on his leg over the bite. They then stopped another boat with a nurse on board.

Jameson was rushed ashore and taken by helicopter to a children's hospital.

“They had to amputate his leg just below the knee to save his life because it was not working due to the damage caused by the shark,” Jameson’s uncle wrote. “They said the shark made the decision for him and there was nothing they could do to save his leg.”

According to his uncle, Jameson will be 11 years old in a couple of weeks.
