Body Found Mangled on South Beach from ‘unknown origin’


Amity, Mass. - After a horrific death was confirmed on South Beach last night, the mangled body of Wendy Watson, 16 of 23 Sharkstooth St. In Amity was found washed up on shore at 7 a.m. today.

Watson, a sophomore at Amity High School, was last seen alive leaving a beach party with an unidentified male at 11 pm. Allegedly, the teenage girl was skinny-dipping under the influence of alcohol, and entered a remote section of the beach.

After a brief search, her body was found severely mauled by an attacker of unknown origin. Her body has been transported to the coroner’s office for autopsy.
No charges have been filed in the case, and police are continuing their investigation of the incident.

Though a shark attack has not been completely ruled out, the cause of death remains uncertain. But the Deputy Martin P. Brody remains confident regarding the safety of Amity beaches.

“We want to assure all residents and visitors on our fine island that they are in no danger”, he said. Our lovely beaches will remain open for swimming pending the outcome of the investigation.”
