Emergency officials performed CPR on the victim, in his mid-20s, according to police. Shortly after, he was rushed to the Cape Cod Hospital by officials with Wellfleet Fire Department but succumbed to his injuries.

The Wellfleet Police Department, which is working with the National Park Service and the State Police on the case, said it is withholding the man’s name until the family is notified.

“Further information will be released by the District Attorney’s Office,” the police department said.

The death follows an Aug. 15 attack on 61-year-old William Lytton, who was swimming off Long Nook Beach in Truro, also on Cape Cod. The neurologist struck the shark in the gills after remembering a nature documentary that said that was the predator’s most sensitive spot. His attack was the  first in Massachusetts waters since 2012.

The Scarsdale, New York, native hopes to be released soon from the hospital and rehabilitation center he’s been in since but has one more surgery scheduled.

God bless and rest in peace brother.
