Shark attack on Alabama teen inspires the start of a national alert system
Lulu Gribbin, a 15-year-old Alabama teen, survived a shark attack in Florida in 2024 but lost her left hand and part of her right leg. Her experience inspired 'Lulu’s Law,' a federal bill signed by President Donald Trump to authorize emergency alerts via mobile phones for shark attacks. The legislation classifies shark attacks as events warranting emergency alerts, with states responsible for implementation.
