Michael Porter said he saw victim trying to pull herself to safety out of Elizabeth Bay harbour pool
A vet and her neighbours are being praised for saving the life of a shark attack victim who dragged herself out of the water at a Sydney Harbour beach.
The woman, who is in her late 20s, was bitten on the right leg by a suspected bull shark in Elizabeth Bay around sunset on Monday.
Michael Porter had just arrived home from work when he heard faint yells for help through his open window.
“It was horrifying, I’ve never experienced anything like it,” he told Nine’s Today program on Tuesday.
“Lauren, the victim, was trying to pull herself up off the side [of] the harbour pool, trying to get into the safe enclosure.
