Update: Injured whale escapes further harm


From reports received it appears that the injured whale that was being followed by three great white sharks earlier today near Bloubergstrand, has managed to evade the sharks, and is swimming with its calf near Robben Island.

The threat posed to beachgoers by the sharks’ presence has now subsided, and the City thanks them for their cooperation.
