Shark sighting prompts closure of Orange County beach

DANA POINT, Calif. (FOX 11) - A stretch of Capistrano Beach in Orange County was closed after an additional shark sighting, after weeks of being under a shark advisory.

On Memorial Day, lifeguards received photos of a large shark and put a closure in place out of an abundance of caution. The closure is expected to be downgraded to a shark advisory.
