The Hawaii man who died in a fatal “encounter” with a shark off the coast of Maui has been identified as 39-year-old Jason Carter.

Carter, a native of the coastal community of Haiku, died Saturday. Authorities arrived at the scene around 11:19 a.m. as lifeguards took the man on a jet ski to shore.

“Once on the ground, first responders took life-saving measures until medical personnel arrived to transport the man to Maui Memorial Medical Center for further treatment,” the Maui Police Department said in a statement.

The 39-year-old man later succumbed to his injuries.

Authorities did not characterize the incident as an attack and did not describe the extent of Carter’s injuries, but MPD expressed its condolences to the man’s family and friends.

The man killed in a fatal shark ‘encounter’ on Saturday has been identified as Jason Carter, 39, of Haiku, Hawaii.

Carter was brought ashore by lifeguards and taken to Maui Memorial Medical Center, where he later died.

Authorities did not immediately characterize the incident as an attack and declined to provide further details about the extent of Carter’s injuries.

Carter was fatally injured near Paia Bay, a stretch of sandy beach popular with bodyboarders and surfers.

Following the incident, warning signs were posted about a mile in either direction of the site.

Officials announced that nearby Baldwin Beach Park and Baby Beach would be closed Saturday.

According to the Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR), Carter was in the water during “mixed” water conditions resulting from high surf.

“By noon Sunday, if no further signs of shark activity are detected, the signs will be removed,” the department said in a Facebook post.

According to the DNLR shark incident database, this is the eighth shark-related incident to occur this year.

It is also the only one that has ended with a fatality.
