The shark that allegedly killed two people was caught and killed by fishermen on July 3 according to Police Chief Martin Brody. Fishermen caught the shark one mile south of Amity Island.
The fishermen will receive their $3,000 reward, as promised.
Though Brody seemed relieved in his press release on July 4, he also said that Islanders should not be surprised to see shark spotter from the Coast Guard, the Marine Patrol, the Massachusetts State Police, the U.S. Navy, Homeland Security, the FBI, and numerous local and municipal county police agencies in the waters off the beaches.
"They are simply a safety precaution that we hope will put our visitors at ease," Brody said.
